[Puppet Users] Re: Will the puppetmaster compile a catalog if there are not changes?

The master won't recompile a catalog if there have been no changes on the master's side, I believe. It will always send a catalog, if possible, to the client, either a newly compiled one or an old one if it didn't need to recompile. On Thursday, August 8, 2013 1:09:32 PM UTC-7, rjl wrote: > > I

[Puppet Users] Will the puppetmaster compile a catalog if there are not changes?

I have been asked a question for which I cannot seem to find an answer. When a client contacts my puppetmaster, will the puppet master compile a catalog if there have been not changes to that clients configuration? Or, will the puppetmaster just say 'there are no changes to your catalog so you

For those following along at home, Luke and I continued to dig on IRC ... he was actually using HSQLDB not Postgresql it turns out. Doing queries on the database resulted in missing rows from resource_params for some reason, which a puppet run restored. We can't find a reasonable explanation for th

Well FWIW, I can't replicate this when I upgrade from 1.0.1 to 1.3.2, I even attempted to name things in the same way, no luck: https://gist.github.com/kbarber/6184213. Looking at the schema changes in code, not much has changed to do with parameters since 1.0.1 either: https://github.com/puppet

Since you upgraded from 1.0 to 1.3.2 something has indeed happened in puppetdb so check your settings: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppetdb/1.3/release_notes.html#section-3 This talks about automatic node purging, which will deactivate exported resources aswell. /Nicolai -- You received this
