See, THAT is exactly the kind of thing I was wondering about and looking for. If you are providing the data by entering it into the console -- as opposed to putting it literally into a class declaration in a manifest file -- then everything makes sense. In all likelihood, you are entering the parameter value into the console in a format that the console interprets as a string. The docs ( http://docs.puppetlabs.com/pe/latest/console_classes_groups.html#editing-class-parameters-on-nodes, "Supported Data Types" subsection) are not very expansive on this point, but it looks like maybe the console wants you to enclose hash values in backticks (`). That's strangely inconsistent if true, but it would explain the observed behavior. John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
