I'm trying to have a exec dependency on a service object that would keep it from being restarted if the exec fails. Unfortunately, the service gets refreshed regardless whenever the exec is run, failure or not.
I've tried various combinations of subscribe/require/notify, but can't find an elegant way to not restart the service when the dependency fails. I must be missing something obvious. We have a few needs for this model, here's a (simplified) example of one: class dhcp::server { package { dhcp3-server: ensure => installed } service { dhcp3-server: ensure => running, hasstatus => true, require => [ Package["dhcp3-server"], Exec["check-dhcpd-conf"] ], } exec { "check-dhcpd-conf": command => "/usr/sbin/dhcpd3 -t 2>&1", refreshonly => true, subscribe => [ File["/etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf"], File["/etc/dhcp3"] ]; } file { "/etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf": source => "puppet:///dist/dhcp/$hostname/dhcpd.conf"; "/etc/dhcp3": source => "puppet:///dist/dhcp/include", recurse => true; } } Ideas? -j -- Jason Lavoie Ratvarre sbe uver ja...@oasys.net --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
