Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet system deployment hanging ..
Well, I wonder if there is a way to make puppet turn off the updater before starting it's run ? On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 2:00 PM, Eric Shamow eric.sha...@gmail.com wrote: I have seen this behavior before as well. I've also seen it where yum-updater (which is evil and shouldn't be running, but in some cases hasn't been turned off yet by kickstart or puppet) will switch on and demolish a bootstrap Puppet run. It would help if the yum handler was a little more verbose or had some kind of watchdog that could reap stale processes after a while. The hardest thing about this kind of problem is actually figuring out what causes the issue, since Puppet/Yum only log the action after it's completed. -Eric On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 2:04 AM, Adrian Snyman a.sny...@gmail.com wrote: On Fri, Aug 13, 2010 at 8:46 AM, Adrian Snyman a.sny...@gmail.com wrote: On Fri, Aug 13, 2010 at 8:02 AM, Adrian Snyman a.sny...@gmail.com wrote: On Thu, Aug 12, 2010 at 1:38 PM, Trevor Hemsley trevor.hems...@codefarm.com wrote: You're not exec'ing some install program that is stopping and waiting for input?

Just the other day we had a problem with the config on the DNS servers that appeared first in the (puppet-controlled) resolv.conf of our machines. Puppet initialized just fine, but sat and waited for DNS resolution (read: timeout) at each step, which took forever. Might want to check into that, too. Yep, thought about that .. The box has DNS resolution - no problems. It pulls repos from redhat epel, as well as some scientific linux stuff .. It populates the yum.repos.d directory, and then does : yum update -y This completes no problems, so I think it's deeper than that.
