Hi,
After some reading and experimenting, I thought I had found the solution
to the problem below in class inheritance, but again... I'm stuck.
As said, I have class "nagios-target", defined as listed below.
I now have this:
class mta inherits nagios-target {
Nagios_host [$hostname] {
hostgroups +> "mail-satellite-servers",
}
}
This works; I get a Nagios host definition with the expected 'hostgroups'
setting.
Now I add a second class:
class snmp inherits nagios-target {
Nagios_host [$hostname] {
hostgroups +> "snmp-servers",
}
}
but now I get:
Error 400 on SERVER: Parameter 'hostgroups' is already set on
Nagios_host[martijn] at /etc/puppet/manifests/classes/mta.pp:43; cannot
redefine at /etc/puppet/manifests/classes/snmp.pp:4 on node martijn.
What part of overriding parameters and the '+>' operator am I missing here?
Best regards,
Martijn.
