Re: [Puppet Users] Re: Module for tuned-adm
Provider for this is overkill was my first impression also, but after
fighting a couple of time against my own exec for it, I just said F**k
that, let's make a proper extension. Also, this is very trivial extension
allowed me to demo how to do such extension in small Puppet workshop that
I gave.

You could also have a look at this other module :

/shameless plug
I just had a look at Romain's, and a provider just for this is
overkill. As much as I hate exec, it's fine here since the profile name
is exactly contained in a single configuration file. Also, a class is
best here instead of a definition since it can only be instantiated
once per node. Lastly, using a class makes it trivial to tune nodes
using hiera and class parameter auto-lookup in puppet 3.

Hi all,
tuned-adm module: https://github.com/rpelisse/puppet-tuned
I'm using
tuned-adm
https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Power_Management_Guide/tuned-adm.html
to
tune the kernel of the target system according to a profile. I
first used exec{} to trigger the profile setting but lead to the
exec{} being ran at every Puppet run which I found, at beast,
inelegant. I end up doing this module to more and less properly
implement the exists? method. The module implementation is rather
rudimentory but still nice to have - if you need it.
(Note: i've googled a bit before doing that and ran into a couple
of existing Puppet module or code for tuned-adm but they were
either using exec() internally or just installing the packages and
nothing more).
(Final note: Before XMas, I've already submitted a completely
useless module extension to handle DNS Name, as it turned out
Puppet supports this out of the box, so I hope this module proposal
will be a tidbit more useful ! :) )

Re: [Puppet Users] Dynamically assign Static IP Addresses
We are using LDAP as our ENC, which contains the network interfaces as a subtree of the HOST tree. The provisioning system (cobbler) uses ldap for the configuration of the installation files (autoyast/kisckstart). Puppet will handle the re-configuration of the network. I'm trying (getting on very slowly) to write and hiera ldap backend, because since network config is in a subtree, those data is not available as global vars. Just another method ...

The output is:
a String 1
b Fixnum 1
c String 1.1
d Float 1.1
Is this working as intended?
I think so. Puppet DSL does not require most string literals to be quoted,
so it can distinguish numeric-form strings from actual numbers only by how
they are produced or used. I think it reasonable for Puppet to treat all
values as strings except where it has specific reason to do otherwise.
That's not the only possible approach, but I think it's probably the best
fit for Puppet.
How can I identify number types within the template without adding + 0
on the manifest? I'm aware that it's not a good idea to duck-type on
templates but I'm still wondering.
It depends on what you mean by that. Apparently it's not about identifying
whether Puppet is treating the value as numeric, so I guess it's about
whether the value is numeric in form. Perhaps you could do something along
these lines:
%
begin
num = Float(@maybe_num)
# It can be interpreted as a number
rescue
# It's not numeric
end
%
Really, though, this should not be necessary. The DSL code calling the
template should know how to use it appropriately (else it has no business
using it at all).

[Puppet Users] Puppi parameters in command line
Hi , I am a new puppet user. As i am not used yet to ruby and puppet I've decided to use the puppi module to deploy web applications in my company. I ve created some specific define , scripts etc and I saw recently that it was possible to pass options in command line . seen from example42 site : *puppi deploy myapp -i -o version=1.1 source_url=** http://dev.example42.com/code/my_app*/http://dev.example42.com/code/my_app/quot: Deploys myapp in interactive mode and sets some custom options that override the standard Puppet params. Note that these parameters change according to the script you use (and the scripts must honour this override). I think it would be a good idea to allow operators to launch custom puppi deploy commands on demand .. But .. But i didn't succeed to override my project define parameters . Would it be possible for someone ( Alessandro for instance ;) ) to give me an example of a good use of theses parameters and what i have to modify to retrieve them ?? Another question : Is it possible to embeed puppi calls directly in a rb script ?? For example , rather than executing puppi via shell, i'd like to include my puppi define and call it like this ( sorry for the syntax, i am not ruby compliant for the moment :) , but you get the idea, I hope ) mypuppiwrapper.rb include puppi:project:war:myapp puppi:project:war:myapp deploy Hope you understand me !

Remove it and see what happens instead. Puppet won't track background
tasks like this, and it might be failing.

Re: [Puppet Users] use of exec in puppet
the env binary is in /usr/bin and therefore your path is not wide enough.
/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin is a good default. Adding /usr/local/bin
and /usr/local/sbin might be good ideas depending on your setup.

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: White Paper: Migrating from Redhat satellite server to Puppet + Foreman
Hey There, Sorry for the late reply on this, been a bit manic this end and am just catching up. To be honest, I don't disagree with you really on most of your points. In regards to the paper, this was that worked for this environment and there were some other factors behind the scenes (financial, political and technical) that drove the approach as well, however things like patch and release management is something that needs to be looked at going forward. One thing I opted out of talking about in the paper was that we had to deal with a just as problematic Spacewalk install, other software repos served random infrastructure hosts and a mess of other kickstart setups for both RHEL and CentOS glued together with a web of cobbler, because of this I opted to centralise all the packages from these locations on a simple Apache based YUM platform, then revisit it when when I got the chance. I did have Puppet + Satellite running for a while as well, and it did function as I expected, although it was pretty slow, but as you mention, it could have been the age and configuration of the platform as well. I do appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback, my goal really was to get information out there about what to expect if/when you migrate, without the admin having to rediscover every step along the way, and your comments do provide the other side of the coin. Cheers, K On Thu, Jun 13, 2013 at 2:17 PM, Stephen Benjamin skbe...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, Interesting paper. For full disclosure, I do work for Red Hat, so you know, I could be biased :) I agree about Puppet being miles ahead for configuration. For customers who can, I think they should rely on Puppet instead of Satellite for configuration, unless they have simple needs. But I prefer Satellite's software management. There's no reason you can't use Satellite alongside the Foreman or with plain Puppet. I have many customers who do, and I do on my own home network. The hybrid approach works well. You can, of course, leave Satellite to setup your own roll your own yum repos with mrepo/grindr, or using Pulp. IMHO, I think you spend a lot of effort for a solution that's not as good. Cloned channels, for the moment, is really the best way to lock multiple systems to the same versions. A roll-your-own with yum repos makes that difficult -- you're left with having multiple copies of everything on the filesystem. For Pulp, you need at least 2 copies of all the software (the mrepo/grindr dump, and the internal pulp copy). Pulp does has similar features like cloned channels but last time I looked it wasn't as mature as Satellite's. I also remember having quite a bit of difficulty getting install trees to import correctly into Pulp. Satellite also gives you a really nice view into the latest errata, including security updates, and the ability to compare systems and look at their package profiles in detail. Overall, I think patch management plan needs a closer look in your solution. As far as the list of complaints about Satellite, I disagree with most. There's two pages of complaing about Satellite when admittedly, you're running this on a pretty old version of Satellite. Most of your complaints could be addressed by just upgrading or understanding the product better. Just a few notes about your complaints: * Reporting for software related information is good - you can see the full package set on systems, and do a diff of two systems. * You can see what systems are not checking in quite easily... * Duplicate node finder was available starting with 5.3 (5.4?) although I don't think it's perfect. You're better of making sure you're using reactivation keys, which I think are now included in the latest RHN registration snippet. * Inventory? Satellite has *a lot* of information about a system. For custom data you can use key/value pairs. For example, I have a script that syncs Facter info to Satellite: https://github.com/stbenjam/spacewalk-facter * Speed complaints - TBH, this sounds like there was some underlying problems with your Satellite server. I'd have opened a ticket with Red Hat to have them look at it in detail. Building a new server total time takes under 5 minutes for me, including registration to Satellite. * Kickstart - host renaming from localhost is easily fixed by writing a better kickstart, e.g. using https://github.com/stbenjam/junk-drawer/blob/master/kickstart/pre_parse_kernel_cmdline.txtand https://github.com/stbenjam/junk-drawer/blob/master/kickstart/cmdline_network - Stephen On Monday, June 10, 2013 3:04:17 PM UTC+2, Keiran Sweet wrote: Hi Everyone, I've written a paper that captures the approach that we took when moving from Redhat Satellite for configuration and software management to Puppet and Foreman (alongside some other assorted technologies).

[Puppet Users] Re: How to make a package dependant on a class for the repository.
Thank you very much Joe. I think this exactly the path that I need but I am
having trouble with it.
As I said, I have multiple systems that this repo class watches over. Thus,
for one of several instances, I have things like:
if $osfamily == 'RedHat' {
class {'repos::epel': }
}
The sub-class epel.pp file configures the EPEL repository for the RHEL,
Scientific, CentOS, Fedora, ect. However, trying to anchor that caused a
bunch of odd errors (it is entirely possible I didn't do it right).
I also have the main configuration in a large case statement that manages
the main configuration in sub-classes for all operating systems (thus only
some sub-classes are ever called). This too is causing me some issues.
I think it is because I don't fully understand how the anchor is supposed
to work and the examples listed are a bit simplistic with both a require
and a notify. But what if I need it to require only if it matches certain
parameters?
I poked around in a few other modules seeing if I could find more examples,
but came up empty.
Does anyone know where I can view more examples/code for some guidance?

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: How to make a package dependant on a class for the repository.
Hi Stack,
here's an example:
https://github.com/wolfspyre/puppet-mysqlx/blob/master/manifests/v55.pp
in this class I create a pair of bookend anchors, and then shove a yumrepo,
and a file resource between them.
Your other classes/resources can then declare a relationship to the end
anchor to establish the relationship.
some gotchas:
- Make sure to include the class declaring the anchor into the class which
has the dependency.
- Remember that you've just permanently established a relationship between
these two classes. This is important to know, and can take you in a
direction that leads to complications down the road.
- It is common to have specific software classes depend on your base-type
'i set up my package repositories, and some other core things that will
happen most everywhere' resources. The caveat here is that modules you
share with the world will NOT have that base class, and as such may have
dependency issues.
- Use the anchor pattern as sparingly as possible. Consider having to use
it like having to resort to an exec. It is occasionally the right tool for
the job, but not usually.
Hope that helps.

[Puppet Users] IPTables Firewall modules Question
Greetings,
I have a question about best practices for the puppet firewall module. I
have pasted my basic config files below and I am curious about a few things.
* The ports that all nodes share in common I am adding to the
modules/my_firewall/manifests/init.pp file, but the ports that are specific
to a node I am adding to the node definition in manifests/site.pp. What
should I do to prevent the firewall rules from becoming unwieldy in my
site.pp file? It is fine if there are only a few ports open, but once I
start adding a lot of ports to the nodes it gets rather big. Any
suggestions, or is it common to have rather large node definitions?
* The documentation says that the number should be between 000..999.
However, I made my post.pp deny rule as 9 so that I could make the
number the port (makes sense to me and help track which port is for what
purpose; I made it that high because one app has port 27000). The vast
majority of the time I don't care what order the ports are in, just so long
as they appear between the pre and post section. It also helps me remember
which number the rule should be so I don't have duplicate ID numbers. Does
anyone else label the ID this way? Is there a problem with making this ID
so large when the documentation lists the max number as 999 (I am guessing
it was just a large number the author picked at random and not one with
significant meaning, but I am curious)?
Also, a semi-related question since I am posting the configs...Did I do it
right? :-D It works for my test cases so far. Mostly just want to check to
make sure I didn't misunderstand the documentation. So if I missed
something or if I goofed something up, I would appreciate a response.
Thanks!

[Puppet Users] Re: Exec onlyif/unless with internal functions instead of external commands?

Thanks Michael.
I was hoping to add such a functionality to Puppet.
Puppet hasn't really been designed to be low overhead (with more of a
focus on simplicity) and i think the least of it's performance problems
come from the fact that it uses an external fork for exec checks.
I hope that's not Puppetlabs' view on performance. Performance and resource
optimisation should be up there at the top of the feature list just like
security.

Hi,
A little annoyance about exec that bothers me is that there is no way
to use unless/onlyif except with external commands, even if a simple
Ruby function could be used to execute the test.
e.g. onlyif = 'test -d /data' will fork and exec test to do a simple
stat(2) which can be done with much less overhead with Ruby's
File.directory?('/data').
How about allowing passing a none-string value to Exec's onlyif/unless
attributes, and consider that as the result? If it's a string then it will
be treated as today, otherwise it will be treated as a boolean.
I don't think this will break any backward compatibility since all Exec's
currently expect strings to execute.

Yes I keep forgetting that.
If you really want to run code on the client it has to be a type/provider.
I was hoping to get something like to be considered to be built into
Puppet.
If it is only test -e, use File%creates.
I know about creates parameter, but there are other tests which could be
easily done with a ruby function/system-call (e.g. file size, type, content
etc).

[Puppet Users] Is it possible to pass extra flags to Puppet via rspec?`
Hello, I'm writing my first puppet function rspec test and am having a problem which I don't see how to solve. The function (and the test) involve access to files through the File Server. In order for the function (and the test) to work I need to pass --fileserverconf=fileserver.conf parameter to Puppet. So far I haven't found a way to do that. If I understand the rspec-puppet source at https://github.com/rodjek/rspec-puppet/blob/master/lib/rspec-puppet.rb correctly then the list of parameters I can pass is limited to the ones mentioned in lines 16-22. Am I right? Does anyone know how can I pass other parameters, or otherwise affect Puppet's configuration to set this value?

Re: [Puppet Users] Is it possible to pass extra flags to Puppet via rspec?`
Hi Amos,
Here's what I've done:
in spec/spec_helper.rb:
Puppet.settings[:confdir] = spec/fixtures
then in the class I was working on, I made a parameter:
class foo(
$puppetdir = $settings::confdir
){
…
}
then in that class's spec test:
require 'spec_helper'
require 'puppetlabs_spec_helper/module_spec_helper'
foo = Puppet.settings[:confdir]
describe 'foo', :type = :class do
let (:params) do { 'puppetdir' = foo } end
…
it stands to reason that a similar method could be employed to feed your
function, but I'm not certain.

Re: [Puppet Users] most current method of configuring cisco (and force10?) devices
On Tue, Jun 25, 2013 at 3:30 PM, Wolf Noble w...@wolfspyre.com wrote: I've been asked to explore the landscape of network device management via puppet. There are two approaches, either run an agent on the device such as juniper, or manage through a proxy agent. in particular, I'm looking to support cisco, and force10 switches. I'm not sure the cisco device support that's built in is very robust at the moment. I've heard someone mention a demo of cisco one pk, but haven't seen the module anywhere. I know about the network device system, I'm wondering if that's the way to go for both cisco and force10, or if there's a better way for one or both? I'm assuming you are willing to roll your sleeve to implement this. Emulating what the network admin would type via CLI is going to be brittle (i.e. ios commands), so I would look at the device API docs to get a better idea what it takes to manage them. I've seen the Juniper netdev module, but haven't the gear to play with it. I think the netdev module is easier to follow than the cisco resource to get an idea what is needed to implemented a device resource. IMO, you don't need to adhere to device resource type, and it's actually easier to implement support through regular puppet resources.

Those are the limit you can pass to the RSpec.configure { ... } block in
your spec helper.
Does anyone know how can I pass other parameters, or otherwise affect
Puppet's configuration to set this value?
Have you tried something like:
describe 'foo' do
before do
Puppet[:fileserverconfig] = '/my/path/to/fileserver.conf'
end
your tests
end

Nan -
In puppetlabs_spec_helper/puppet_spec_helper[1] which was based on a file
in Puppet[2] the confdir and vardir are explicitly set to '/dev/null' which
causes the modulepath you're seeing in Puppet proper.
I believe, however the subject catalog/function that is tested in each
example group (unless you explicitly create a subject yourself) should mask
that value with what ever is passed into RSpec.configure (like the
modulepath setting in module_spec_helper) for its
compilation/initialization[3][4].
