If you keep your nodes in a nodes.pp file, and you are logging nodes as they check in, you can run a little script that I run from time to time to find nodes that have stopped communicating:
#!/bin/bash tail -20000 /var/log/messages | grep "Compiled catalog for " | tr -s " " | cut -f 9 -d " " | cut -f 1 -d "." | sort | uniq > /tmp/nodes_checked_in cat /etc/puppet/manifests/nodes.pp | cut -f 2 -d "'" | cut -f 1 -d "." | sort | uniq > /tmp/nodes_expected echo "< nodes checked in, but not expected ... > nodes expected, but not checked in." diff /tmp/nodes_checked_in /tmp/nodes_expected | grep "[<>]" | sort ~Charles~ On Mon, Jun 27, 2011 at 8:52 AM, j...@squirk.org <j...@squirk.org> wrote: > Le 16/06/2011 20:12, Nathan Clemons a écrit : > > Thanks.
