Several solutions: 1. write wrapper module per data center: class ny_ntp { class { ‘::ntp’: server => [‘ny_ntp.corp.com’], } } class sf_ntp { class { ‘::ntp’: servers => [‘sf_ntp.corp.com’], } } class isr_ntp { class { ‘::ntp’: servers => [‘isr_ntp.corp.com’], } } use one of the the wrapper class within node classification 2. use hiera provide a custom fact to identify location per server and put ntp::servers into the appropriate hiera data hierarchy.
