Ah. I grabbed puppetlast from
http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/attachment/ticket/1188/puppetlast
It doesn't work with 0.24.7-4:
# ./puppetlast
puppetlast
error: undefined method `version' for #<Puppet::Node::Facts:0x2aaaac0b8958>
However, it's pretty clear (even to my untrained ruby eyes) what this
script does, so it looks like what I can do is simply check the last
modified time of the last yaml file like this:
stat `ls -tr /var/lib/puppet/yaml/facts/*.yaml | tail -n1`
and then check to make sure that's within reasonable limits.
