Try using the environment from the hierarchy: :hierarchy: - %{environment}/%{fqdn} - %{environment}/common - %{fqdn} - common :backends: - yaml :yaml: :datadir: '/etc/puppet/hieradata'
/etc/puppet/hieradata/ |-- dev |-- production `-- qa This works for me “Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.” Bill Waterson (Calvin & Hobbes) ----- Original Message ----- From: "phundisk" <alex.farh...@currensee.com> To: puppet-users@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, June 5, 2013 2:18:41 PM Subject: [Puppet Users] Re: Hiera and environments I am also having the same issue you were having. When I removed the '%{environment}' part of the datadir, hiera works fine, however for me to have different development stages, I need to be able to specify environments so I don't accidentally take down production with a change to hiera variable. Did anyone find a way for this to work? :yaml: :datadir: '/etc/puppet/environments/%{environment}/hieradata/' -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
