Re: [Puppet Users] can puppet replace NIS?

In my experience, replacements for NIS are things like LDAP and DNS While Puppet can help with the implementation, IMHO it cannot do the actual work of any of these services. Or did I misunderstand the question ? On May 19, 2012, at 7:51 PM, ConradL wrote: > Hi folks -- > > Does anyone out th

[Puppet Users] Is there a way to limit the number of agents that can run concurrently?

Hi all, I've set up a Puppet environment with a master managing around 80 agents. I would like to set a limit on the number of agents that can be performing puppet runs at any given moment...so, for example, if there are already 3 puppet runs ongoing, the 4th agent should be put on hold until one
