Hi
Using a global ENC - this is allocating facts like location and envornment.
in my hiera I had
# Envornment - YB
- "ybenv/%{::ybenv}"
so I would have say
prod.yaml
and
# Location - YB
- "yblocation/%{::yblocation}"
to id location or datacentre
I setting
yblocation: alc << not sure why I am setting this again as its set by the
ENC
yblocation::ip: 33 << this is new not defined in the ENC
but I have a common.yaml that tries to use this value and the only way I
get to view it is with a hiera lookup..
and its not working the best.
but https://docs.puppet.com/hiera/3.2/variables.html
Passing Variables to Hiera seciton
- Avoid referencing user-set local variables from Hiera. Instead, use
facts, built-in variables,
<https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/latest/reference/lang_facts_and_builtin_vars.html>top-scope
variables, node-scope variables, or variables from an ENC whenever
possible.
does that mean i should do it all in my ENC ??

when i run this on a node it doesn't get the 172 ??
Let me try and explain that again ...
this is what I get from my ENC
---
environment: production
parameters:
ybenv: alex
yblocation: ybo
my :hierarchy looks like
:hierarchy:
# node specific
- "nodes/%{::trusted.certname}"
# Applicaiton - YB
- "ybapplication/%{::ybapplication}"
# Envornment - YB
- "ybenv/%{::ybenv}"
# Location - YB
- "yblocation/%{::yblocation}"
# OS specific
- "os/%{::osfamily}"
# common to all
- common
in yblocation
cat hieradata/yblocation/ybo.yaml
---
##
yblocation: ybo
yblocation::ip: 172
and in cat hieradata/common.yaml
#
# Save it
ybenv::file:
ybenv_file1:
path: /etc/ybenv
ensure: present
content: "ybenv: %{::ybenv}\nyblocation:
%{::yblocation}\n%{hiera('ybvlan')}\n%{hiera('yblocation::ip')}\n"
group: root
mode: '0444'
owner: root
hiera -d ybenv::file ::osfamily=RedHat environment=production
::trusted.certname=abc ::ybenv=alex ::yblocation=ybo
gives me
"content"=>"ybenv: alex\nyblocation: ybo\n0\n172\n",
but on the node i get this
Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/Node[default]/File[ybenv_file1]/content:

looks like the hiera() is not working properly
