Another iteration of failure is the following. This one is in the likeness
of ::parms for a class, but if it nrpe:load inherits override class, then I
can't declare the override class anywhere else. This was my
first attempt to do this, and have tried 4 other iterations of this, but as
far as I can tell, because it can't inherit the class, it will ONLY use the
default values, which can only be undef or some other default value, again
defeating the ability to override.
class nrpe::load {
package { nagios-plugins-load: ensure => installed }
if $nrpe::load::override::warn == 'UNSET' {
$warn = $processorcount
} else {
$warn = $nrpe::load::override::warn
}
if $nrpe::load::override::crit == 'UNSET' {
$crit = $processorcount * 2
} else {
$crit = $nrpe::load::override::crit
}
file { "/etc/nagios/command.d/load.cfg":
owner => root,
group => root,
mode => 640,
content => template("nrpe/load.cfg.erb"),
notify => Service[nrpe]
}
}
class nrpe::load::override($warn = 'UNSET', $crit = 'UNSET') {
}
