Re: [Puppet Users] dynamic data in hiera
To be sure, you can run the puppet master in debug mode: puppet master --no-daemonize --debug You will get a continuous stream of messages from hiera: Debug: hiera(): Looking up $sys in scope Debug: hiera(): Looking up $sys in scope Debug: hiera(): Looking up $sys in scope ...

Re: [Puppet Users] dynamic data in hiera
For further reference: I found the problem with the CPU burning. It seems hiera lookups can end up in an endless loop when specifying meaningful regex characters (like $,+,?) in your lookup variables. So specifying key:%{$var} will cause an endless loop. I created a ticket http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/17094 to address the issue and suggested a possible fix (using Regexp.escape) . Otherwise, hiera is a great tool to work with!

[Puppet Users] dynamic data in hiera
Hi list, I wondered if I could include 'dynamic' data inside a hiera yaml file. I would like to be able to add variables in scope of the resource which performs a hiera call. So e.g. in hiera yaml: address: 192.168.1.#{nodeID} in puppet node test { $nodeID = 5 $ip=hiera(address) } Is such thing possible and if so what is the correct syntax? thanks Peter -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Puppet Users group.
