[Puppet Users] How to remove a section in inifile?

[Vadym Chepkov]

Hi,

Is there way to remove a whole section from an inifile ?

For example,

[section]

Removing settings from the section you can do with puppetlabs-inifile module:

  ini_setting { 'made a mistake':
ensure  => absent,
path=> $config_file,
section => 'section',
setting => $setting,
  }

But how to remove empty section itself?

Thanks,
Vadym

[Puppet Users] Newbie question about fetching specific value of a key from hash

[Sam]

My hiera entries -

mysqlconfig::custom_mysql_options:
  mysqld:
replicate-ignore-db: 'test'
server-id: 12
datadir: '/data/mysql_data'


I want to get the value of datadir in my puppet module. Please let me know 
what is the syntax I need to use to fetch this value. I tried something as 
follows but it doesn't work. 


$datadir = hiera('mysqlconfig::custom_mysql_options[datadir]')

  file { "$datadir":
ensure => directory,
owner  => 'mysql',
group  => 'mysql',
mode   => '0755',
  }


Thanks in advance
Sam

[Puppet Users] Schedule Vcsrepo to sync local with remote

[mike r]

Hello everyone, 

Im trying to use vcsrepo to sync my PE Master files with a remote git 
repository

I wanted to sync every 15 min in case there are new commits on remote. Is 
there a way to set vcsrepo to run on PE Master periodically without using a 
cron job?

this is what my vcsrepo class looks like,


cat vcsrepo.pp

 vcsrepo { "${modulepath}/nginx/files/repo":
ensure   => latest,
provider => git,
source   => https://github.com/myremote.git,
revision => 'master',
force=> true,
  }

Trying to avoid using cron but cant figure if its possible to run this on 
PE Master as 'puppet apply vcsrepo.pp' every 15 min or so.

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: Monitoring Puppet with Zabbix

[hoize]

Hello,

sorry but in the past there was honestly no time to look at this problem.
Today I had some "sparetime" and built a short script, which reads from the 
puppet - last_run_summary.yaml-file. 
This script is started by zabbix via a zabbix-user-parameter.

I'm now able to monitor if a puppetrun is more than 20 minutes ago, if any 
errors came up and the puppetrun-time!



*If someone needs this script or help, don't hasitate to contact me!*
I thank you all very much!!!
-Hoize
