So I'm revisiting puppet's management of nagios now that 0.25.1 is out and I want to say thanks for the updates to all the nagios types.
However, there is one huge, gaping hole that's been asked about before in 2 different threads but that's never been addressed: object inheritance. For it to work, it requires the object being inherited from to have a "name" variable set, otherwise it doesn't work at all. As it stands, there's no ability to set that "name" variable. You can set the "host_name" or "contact_name", etc, but you can't set just a "name" variable. For reference, this is what I'm talking about: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectinheritance.html Any way this can be added to puppet? It's really a show-stopper since inheritance is key to having a more easily managed nagios install. Cheers, Scott For reference, here are the 2 threads I was talking about: http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-dev/browse_thread/thread/8539b09b91a40482/86c319d4db219bc7?q=#86c319d4db219bc7 http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/684d0eb328aaa7b5/7ad52f8adbe9bd9b?q=#7ad52f8adbe9bd9b --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
