Hi,
I have a bizarre problem with cfengine copy statement that should be obvious :-(
I want to copy a file to my clients form a policy server and when the file is
removed on the policy server the file is removed on the client, simple not :-)
So I have a cfengine file cf.test.linux
control:
actionsequence = ( copy shellcommands )
AddInstallable = ( no_testCopied testCopied )
copy:
linux::
$/cfengine/domain/test/tmp/testfile dest=/tmp/testfile
server=10.10.10.10
backup=false
type=sum
define=testCopied
#elsedefine=no_testCopied
#failover=no_testCopied
purge=true
alerts:
no_testCopied::
"ALERT : no_testCopied is set"
testCopied::
"ALERT : testCopied is set"
shellcommands:
testCopied::
"/bin/echo testCopied is set"
no_testCopied::
"/bin/echo no_testCopied is set"
When the testfile is available on the policy server I get no problem, files is
copied ...
cfengine:client1: Strong authentication of server=10.10.10.10 connection
confirmed
Performance(Copy(10.10.10.10:/cfengine/domain/test > /var/cfengine/inputs)):
time=1.6723 secs, av=1.6693 +/- 0.0362
Checking copy from 10.10.10.10:/cfengine/domain/test/ to /var/cfengine/inputs
cfengine:client1: (Destination purging enabled)
Performance(Copy(10.10.10.10:/cfengine/domain/test/ > /var/cfengine/inputs)):
time=1.4926 secs, av=1.5060 +/- 0.1227
When I delete the file on the policy server...
I get
cfengine:client1: Strong authentication of server=10.10.10.10 connection
confirmed
cfengine:client1: Server returned error: Unspecified server refusal (see
verbose server output)
cfengine:client1: Can't stat /cfengine/cfroot.linux/test/tmp/testfile in copy
Saving the setuid log in /var/cfengine/cfagent.client1.log
And the file still remains there ....
ls -l /tmp/testfile
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 Jan 8 11:45 /tmp/testfile
My question is : if this is normal behavior, or works as designed cause reading
through the documentation it gave me an other impression
I have also trying to sove this with the failover command, but once agian no
luck there
