I'm wondering if anyone knows a good way to get the date and time when a portion of code in a Puppet manifest is actually *executed*. Sometimes my manifests take a long time to run, and I need to schedule a task to occur soon after the end of the run, no matter when that occurs.
I have tried the time() function, setting a variable using generate() (using the date function on the Puppet master), and even creating a custom fact, but everything I've tried gets evaluated when the manifests are *parsed* on the server, rather than when they actually execute on the client. Any ideas? The clients are all Windows, FWIW. Thanks in advance! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
