HI. Firstly, I'm bound to be doing something utterly basically wrong here, so if I am I apologise.
Right now I have a fairly simple setup where the JAR files for a Weblogic-based application server are stored in the file server on my Puppet Master. I run scripts on the client that downloads the files from the file server, puts them in the right place etc etc. All very simple. I am now trying to automate the other side, getting the files into the file server. I've looked all over the place online and I just can't seem to find any answers. Basically, the JAR files are in a zip file on another server. Right now I have to manually download it and place the files in the right place on the file server. Instead I'd like Puppet to do this for me. The awkward bit is that due to annoying internal office politics this not only has to be done by a script being run (puppetd -onetime) but it should be run on the client (due to access control for who may have to run the scripts) and not on the Puppet Master. So is there any way to, from a client, trigger the Puppet Master to download a file to update the files on the file server? I realise that what could be done is that the client downloads the zip locally, instead of from the file server, but ideally I'd like to download only once due to the possibility of changes being made to the zip file between downloads. Thanks in advance to anyone that can help or point out what I am doing wrong ;o) /Mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
