Hi,
I won't pretend I understand your whole problem, but you obviosly try
and change a parameter (stage in this case) of a resource (here: class
afs) that has already been declared.
There are two ways that spring to mind.
1. Class inheritance:
Inherit the class that declares "class afs" in the first place. In the
subclass, just do
Class["afs"] { stage => first }
Then include the subclass in your node. Finished.
2. Exported Resources Override
(http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/Exported_Resources)
Instead of your above re-declaration of class afs, try
Class<| name == "afs" |> { stage => first }
This should do roughly the same as the class inheritance solution, minus
the class inheritance.
I try to avoid it, as it is convoluted and I don't really trust it ;-)
HTH,
Felix
