Hello,

A client of mine needs to be able to control which hours during the day
a certain daemon is running and which hours it is not.

So far I can think of hiera for controlling the on/off periods + some
math magic to determine in the puppet manifests whether we are currently
in the On or Off period (which would ensure either "running" or "stopped").

The other option could be a custom fact (which would make manifests less
complicated), but I'm unsure of how control over the on/off time periods
could be achieved in this case.

Am I more or less on to something with the above or am I trying to do
something with the wrong tool? One of the downsides of using puppet is
that runs are only once per hour (in that case) so the starting and
stopping times might be unreliable :\
