Yes i tried to tweak with puppet resources, when i set
*ensure => running* and run puppet in debug mode
then puppet executes following command as;
/service/Manageservice[ssh]/Exec[sshd]: Executing '/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd
/*running*/'
similarly, with* ensure => true*
it executes
/service/Manageservice[ssh]/Exec[sshd]: Executing '/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd
/*true*/'
and therefore, failed to start the service because the my init script
takes either 'start' or 'stop' as argument.
unusual behavior! anyway i am looking in to it but if you guys got any
solution please share it.
