There specifically IS a mechanism to control ordering. 'before', 'require', 'subscribe', and 'notify' are metaparameters which specify ordering explicitly. One of the ways that people find they need to adjust their thinking when using Puppet is to adjust to the idea that you need to explicitly specify your dependencies. This is a feature, not a bug. > Is is true enough to say that eventually, everything will run? As long as there are no persistent errors, you can usually depend on multiple runs of puppet eventually bringing your system into sync with your expectations. It's generally considered a best practice to spend a little time trying to get your manifests to work in as few runs as feasible. --Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
