Hello.
I'm a about 2 months into a puppet poc. I've got the low hanging
fruit taken care of and have the standard manifests which apply to
every host of a given operating system. Basically just schlepping
lot's of standard files out to every host of a given OS type. No real
decision making or logic required.

Now I'm starting to branch out into node specific configurations
and would appreciate any input if the following is seen as a common
method to applying host specific configurations. As we progress
through our POC I want to have decent/common practices in place as I
teach the rest of the team.
In the following example I created class to support constructing
raidz(2) zpools.
class zfs::zpool {
zpool { "$my_zpool_name":
ensure => 'present',
raid_parity => "$my_zpool_parity",
raidz => [ "$my_zpool_disks" ]
}
}
Then for any node which will have zpools I include the class and
define the variables like this
node headbone {
# Define my zpool variables
$my_zpool_name = "localdisks"
$my_zpool_parity = "raidz2"
$my_zpool_disks = "c0t2d0 c0t3d0 c0t4d0 c0t5d0
c0t6d0 c0t7d0"
include zfs::zpool
}
Down the road as my needs get more complex and my experience with
puppet grows will I regret this method of node specific
configurations? Anyhoo just looking for any possible gotchas I
haven't taken into consideration.
TIA. Derek.
