---------------------------------------- Bug #4599: host resource should fail when there are duplicates http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4599 Author: Dan Bode Status: Needs more information Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected version: 0.25.5 Keywords: Branch: Consider the following /etc/hosts file with a duplicate namevar foo: <pre> 127.0.0.2 foo 127.0.0.3 foo </pre> <pre> #puppet resource host foo ip=127.0.0.1 notice: /Host[foo]/ip: ip changed '127.0.0.3' to '127.0.0.1' </pre> when puppet runs, it only updates the last entry in the file. <pre> 127.0.0.2 foo 127.0.0.1 foo </pre> This is not consistent with the desired resource state. I would expect one of two things to happen: - update all matching resources - fail, duplicate namevar or something (this would be best) since /etc/hosts chooses the first matching entry, this configuration would be broken.
