[Puppet Users] Over-riding changes in modules and classes
Hello puppet gurus, maybe one of you can help with this. We have a bunch of servers that are managed by puppet, but would like to make a single, small change to a text file only on newly built machines. This text file is controlled by a module that is referenced in several places in our current configuration files. So the question would be, is there a straightforward way to have this new config put in place *only* on newly built machines, but not on all the previously existing ones? I'm thinking that perhaps there's a way to over-ride the config put in place by the existing module without having to copy all of our profiles, etc. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
