[Puppet Users] Re: Puppet Console Groups - Node pattern match

[James Trier]

Solved my issue by getting the regex right but I'd still like know other 
options for automating the collection of nodes into a group via the 
console. If anyone has some pointers.

[Puppet Users] Roles with PE and other ENCs?

[Chris Barbour]

Hi,

I'm interested in getting some feedback from the community. What are your 
thoughts on using roles with a good external node classifier such as Puppet 
Enterprise?

With our without an ENC, profiles make absolute sense as a place to inject 
data and for grouping independent classes into functional assemblies.

However, most node classifiers provide an easy way to group those profiles 
into an assembled product. For example, with PE we could eliminate roles 
entirely, and instead use groups to pull profiles together into an 
assembled system.

The advantage I see with this approach is that it could make it easier for 
consumers of PE to modify or create new roles. A checkin/deploy cycle for 
the code would not be necessary.

The disadvantage I see is that this somewhat changes the roles/profiles 
paradigm, and would create a dependency on the ENC. It would also remove 
the roles from the RCS, which would potentially change or break the 
auditing process.

Thoughts?

[Puppet Users] Ignore a failed dependency

[Bryan Traywick]

I have a general question and a specific question that are related.

The general question: Is it possible to have the dependencies (commands 
that "require") of a command execute even if the command fails? Meaning 
create a sort of soft dependency where I would like the command to be 
performed but if it fails execute the things that depend on it anyway.

Specifically: I have an 'Exec' that runs 'apt-get update'. Several commands 
'require' this 'Exec' (e.g. ensuring that a package is installed). However, 
after an initial provisioning it's not absolutely necessary that 'apt-get 
update' gets run since those packages will be installed already. The 
'apt-get update' is failing occasionally due to a slightly unreliable apt 
repo. I'd like all of the dependent tasks to execute after the 'apt-get 
update', but still execute even if it fails. Ideally I would like to be 
able to have an attribute on an 'Exec' (or really any puppet type) that 
says that it may fail and to just display a warning. As far as I can tell, 
such a attribute doesn't exist.

My current thought is to set up a dummy Exec that just runs 'true', but 
have it notify another Exec that performs the real 'apt-get update'. 
Something like this (untested):

exec { "apt-get update":
  command => "true",
  notify => Exec["real apt-get update"]
}

exec { "real apt-get update":
  command => "apt-get update"
}

Will this approach work in the way I intend? Commands that want a "soft" 
dependency on "apt-get update" will `require => Exec["apt-get update"]` 
which will always succeed but as a side effect perform the "real apt-get 
update" command. Will the `notify` cause "real apt-get update" to be 
performed during every deploy? And will the dependency/ordering graph be 
built such that "real apt-get update" gets executed before any of the other 
commands that `require => Exec["apt-get update"]`?

This also brings up a third question that I thought of while formulating my 
thoughts for this question: Why are dependency and ordering linked in 
puppet? It seems to me that ideally there should be a way to specify that 
command A is performed before command B without making command B depend on 
command A. For example:

exec { "apt-get update":
  command => "true"
}
exec { "real apt-get update":
  command => "apt-get update",
  before => Exec["apt-get update"]
}

I should be able to use "before" or "after" to specify ordering and 
"require" to specify dependence. If I'm missing something fundamental here 
about dependencies and ordering (or if I am fighting the paradigm) I'd 
appreciate the enlightenment.

Thanks for your help,

[Puppet Users] Puppet Console Groups - Node pattern match

[James Trier]

Hi,

I want to use the Groups feature in the console to setup a pattern match on 
"hostname" for a node so that they get all the classes assigned to that 
group. I'm currently doing this through the nodes/nodes.pp file for a set 
of simple named hosts (example of my regex in the nodes.pp below) but now I 
need to expand this a bit and I'm not a regex guy and I can't the regex 
right so I was hoping there was an easier way to match node name strings in 
the console.

node /^hostname\d+$/ {
include 
}

Basically, I'm looking for something like, match anything that starts with web 
and ends with two digits.

Thanks

James

I solved de problem. I dont use the best way, but worked.

In a nutshell, if you have the RAM, it should be entirely functional (we
test against it on literally every commit we do). Note that this isn't
memory used by the puppetmaster; you could have this on its own EC2 node
that's sized differently if you like.

[Puppet Users] Announce: Module puppetlabs/puppetdb 2.0.0 Available

[Ken Barber]

A new release of the puppetlabs/puppetdb module is now available on the Forge:

https://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/puppetdb/2.0.0

This major release changes the main dependency for the inifile module
from the deprecated `cprice404/inifile` to `puppetlabs/inifile` to
remove deprecation warnings and to move onto the latest and greatest
implementation of that code.

Its a major release, because it may affect other dependencies since
modules cannot have overlapping second part dependencies (that is
inifile cannot be from two different locations).

It also adds the parameter `puppetdb_service_status` to the class
`puppetdb` to allow users to specify whether the module manages the
puppetdb service for you.

The `database_password` parameter is now optional, and initial Arch
Linux support has been added.

Thanks again to the community contributors listed below :-).

Changes
-

* (GH-73) Switch to puppetlabs/inifile from cprice/inifile (Ken Barber)
* Make database_password an optional parameter (Nick Lewis)
* add archlinux support (Niels Abspoel)
* Added puppetdb service control (Akos Hencz)

[Puppet Users] Dashboard failed tasks

[Dwayne Lee]

Hey All,

I see that a number of Admins have experienced this same issue, but no one 
has posted a workable solution.  I have about 200 agents, but on any given 
day I'll see 5-10 failed tasks in Dashboard as follows:

*Importing report report-21248-180.yaml* at 10-18-2013 11:10 EDTValidation

Re: [Puppet Users] exporting custom facts to puppet agents

[Dwayne Lee]

I had issues with custom facts returning errors and or not finding the 
custom facts until I created an additional module called "facterpath". 
 Here is the init.pp:

# /etc/puppet/modules/facterpath/manifests/init.pp
class facterpath {
file { "/etc/profile.d/facter.sh":
owner => 'root',
group => 'root',
mode  => '0644',
source => "puppet:///files/etc/profile.d/facter.sh",
}
}

It simply pushes a facter.sh file to /etc/profile.d on all of my agents. 
 Here's the file that gets pushed:

# cat /etc/profile.d/facter.sh
export FACTERLIB=$FACTERLIB:/var/lib/puppet/lib/facter

So now when I log in the facter library becomes part of my ENV and no more 
issues in using the custom facts on my agents.

[Puppet Users] Puppet reports filenames

[Dwayne Lee]

Hey All,

I'm wondering why my YAML files have filenames which are 4 hours off from 
the actual time.  For example, the file created below at 10:13am has a 
filename which would indicate it being created at 2:13pm (off by 4 hours).  

-rw-r- 1 puppet puppet 26047 Oct 18 10:13 
/var/lib/puppet/reports//201310181413.yaml

Is there a reason for this or do I have a setting wrong somewhere? 
 Everything is working correctlyit just bugs me that they are wrong.

Thanks for the help!

[Puppet Users] Can't find a supported method of using storeconfigs on AWS

[Daniel Friesen]

I can't seem to find a sane way of running storeconfigs on the new AWS 
server environment I'm working on.


   - SQLite is not an option. It becomes unusable far too quickly.
   - Using a mysql adapter doesn't seem to work properly.
  - I quickly run into bug 
#9290again and again. Which after 2 
years STILL hasn't been fixed.
  - The top of 
thisseems
 to imply that these ActiveRecord storeconfigs adapters are being 
  deprecated.
   - The recommendation seems to be to use PuppetDB however from the looks 
   of it, I can't even use PuppetDB.
  - I'm not going to use the embedded DB and fall right back into the 
  trap with SQLite again.
  - PuppetDB only appears to support PostgreSQL and does not support 
  MySQL.
  - I already have a MySQL database in AWS' RDS I would like to use. 
  And RDS does not support PostgreSQL.
  - And I am NOT going to go right back to going and installing a 
  separate database server on the local node. That kind of thing has given 
me 
  problem after problem.
   
Please tell me I'm missing something and there's a way I can get this to 
work in this AWS environment. Cause otherwise the idea of puppet running 
any type of server at all – rather than simply working as a local 
filesystem `puppet apply` – looks so unreliable (as I've also had some 
issues with the puppetmaster) that I should just dump every bit of 
server/client software puppetlabs has and write my own custom way of 
distributing configs and data.

What if you use

$h = am_running_oss(1)

(or replace the 1 with any other value)?  Puppet shouldn't break when the 
argument list is empty, but perhaps you've stumbled on a bug.

Be sure to restart your master after modifying any custom functions.  If 
you have not done so, then the master might not see the changes.

The error you posted should arise only in the context of a native plugin 
trying to call a Puppet function, and the only place where your code does 
that is this line:

oss = function_am_running_oss_hash(['/tmp/OSs.txt'])

That is correct as it stands, but if a previous version of the code omitted 
the square brackets then it would cause such an error.

Re: [Puppet Users] Windows 8.1 Puppet Crashing

[Jason Bray]

Well, that is exactly the issue. It doesn't appear to crash in a visible 
way, there is simply no output for any command I give it. Although, every 
once in a while, it appears to work normally and shows output as expected. 
90% of the time, the command hangs for a second or two then returns me to 
the command prompt with no output whatsoever.

For example 

C:\Scratch> puppet apply test.pp --debug --verbose --trace

C:\Scratch>


Actually to make it even weirder, I think I might have been wrong about it 
crashing. For example when I run a simple manifest, 

file { 'C:\Scratch\foo.txt':
  ensure => present,
  content => 'bar,
}

The command prompt looks like this:

C:\Scratch> puppet apply test.pp --debug --verbose --trace

C:\Scratch>

However, when I do a dir, I see that the file has indeed been created.

Re: [Puppet Users] installing package giving error

[kampy]

Hi Matthew,

the same script when i tried from a cloud VM. i am able to install all the 
packages. please help me in resolving the issues.
The environment i am using is a proxy one as i am in company env which has 
some restrictions. 
Do you mean that this may be the problem ?
the IP i am using does have apt-get permissions. 
Please let me know how to get rid of this issue.

Regards,
kampy

on the command line?
