well a notify also implies a before on the notified resource. As you want to manage a resource only once per run, you also want to trigger a resource only once. So if you want to notify a resource you want the resource to be managed after the notifying resource, hence it should be managed before. In your example this means that if the file likes to notify the service it have to be managed before. Otherwise the service is for example in one run first started and then later restarted, which isn't something you'd like to have. Makes sense, doesn't it? cheers pete --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
