Dear all, I would like to use the file resource to supply a host specific file. If it does exist choose it and if not create a file from a template. I tried this, but then /mnt/motd needs to be on all server.
$a = file("/mnt/motd/motd-${::hostname}",'/dev/null') if($a != '') { file {$config_file: ensure => 'file', owner => 'root', group => 'root', mode => '0644', source => "puppet:///motd_files/motd/motd-${::hostname}", } } else { file { $config_file: ensure => 'file', owner => 'root', group => 'root', mode => '0644', content => template($template), } } If I try this $a = file("puppet:///motd_files/motd/motd-${::hostname}",'/dev/null') I get the error that Files must be fully qualified Does anybody has a solution for that?
