Ah, I am sorry. You are absolutly right! I have a typo in my example. Actually I use the schedule "morning" in my resource. Perhaps some background is useful: the define "my_crontab" is using a "cron" type in the background. When I did some tests, I inserted the schedule in the "cron" part and it worked. But when I try to use the schedule directly in the call of the define "my_crontab" (like in the example), it does not work. I am expecting in the example above that the resource my_crontab{"user- crontab"} is only activated during 8 and 9'o clock, assuming there is a puppet run at this time. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
