I would totally recommend Puppet Commander in place of that, if you
have the time to get it running:
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/mcollective-plugins/wiki/ToolPuppetcommander
It uses mcollective and is pretty much awesome.

Hi,
The way we do as similar kind of thing is use a 'role' class which assigns
various classes based on the fact of a node.
We created a custom fact that gives a fact that tells us the node's role. We
then use:

need it), but you also get much more reliable load on your puppet masters.

I've found Puppet to be unreliable running as a daemon - I suspect due to older

works a lot better. Memory usage doesn't seem to be an issue, and the agent

Key highlight in this release (beyond items from 2.7.7rc series) are:

Hi,
I wrote a small func module that installs and configures func. The problem

I have a group of classes (about 6 now) that I want to allow a host to use
none or at most one of them. This just a "guard rail" for admins. :-)
Basically like this:

base::opt1
base::opt2
...
base::opt6
base is default to all nodes.
We use Puppet and Foreman :-)
Thanks

Hi,
I think the error is self explanatory. What are the perms on the directory?
The simplest thing here is to remove /var/lib/puppet/ssl and let it be

It sounds like he wants to not only assue that foo happens before bar,
