Hey all, I'm running puppet version 3.7.5 with foreman 1.7.4. Everything was going well with this setup for quite a long time. Many months at least it ran without even so much as a hiccup!
Until recently when I started adding more nodes I've found this issue I'm having occurring every couple of days. Then as I added even more nodes it started happening every couple of hours!! The way I've always resolved it was to just reboot the puppet host. Which wasn't so bad at first. Not that I like frequent reboots as any kind of solution to a problem. But when I was having to do it once or twice in a weeks time it wasn't so bothersome. But now that it's occurring so often it's time to find a more permanent solution. Without further delay, here's the error I'm getting: #puppet agent --test Warning: Unable to fetch my node definition, but the agent run will continue: Warning: Net::ReadTimeout Info: Retrieving pluginfacts Error: /File[/var/lib/puppet/facts.d]: Failed to generate additional resources using 'eval_generate': Net::ReadTimeout Error: /File[/var/lib/puppet/facts.d]: Could not evaluate: Could not retrieve file metadata for puppet://puppet.example.com/pluginfacts: Net::ReadTimeout Info: Retrieving plugin Error: /File[/var/lib/puppet/lib]: Failed to generate additional resources using 'eval_generate': Error 503 on SERVER: <h1>This website is under heavy load</h1><p>We're sorry, too many people are accessing this website at the same time.

We're working on this problem. Please try again later.</p> I'm running this host on a CentOS 7 host with 4GB of ram with a single core 2.4 GhZ processor. Right now I'm managing a collection of 25 hosts with this puppet server. And as I mentioned I never really had this problem when I was managing less servers with this. So what I'm wondering is if adding more ram to the server would be the only way of solving this problem? Other than reducing the number of hosts that I'm managing with it. Thanks!
