We've been pretty much a homogenous CentOS environment until recently. Actually, we've had a mixture of CentOS, Ubuntu and Debian because a previous admin thought this would be 'fun'. Grrrr. Anyway, I tried to add an Ubuntu system for the first time. My site.pp file has a 'yum clean all' dependency that gets run before any package is installed to make sure it always gets the latest copy of what's available on the repo. I don't want/need this to run for Ubuntu systems.
I wasn't able to get this to run for only CentOS. I tried a few different things in the site.pp. I wish I could put a case statement inside the exec, but puppet doesn't like that. So, below is what I had originally... how can I get the exec["yum-clean-all"] to only run for CentOS and not Ubuntu? Package { provider => $operatingsystem ? { debian => aptitude, redhat => yum, centos => yum, ubuntu => apt, }, } exec { "yum-clean-all": command => "/usr/bin/yum clean all"; } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
