Rob,
Thanks so much for pointing out the write up! Here's what's happening now:
I updated the manifest to the following:
exec { 'sageset.bat':
path => "c:\\windows\\sysnative;c:\\windows\\system32;$::path",
command => "cmd.exe /c c:\\temp\\sageset.bat",
provider => windows,
logoutput => true,
}
If I run the Puppet agent interactively from the node, I get the results I
expect (all Disk Cleanup boxes are checked when I run "cleanmgr /d c:
/sageset:100"). However, if I let manifest run normally from the
puppetmaster, the boxes remain unchecked. Why is that, and what steps do I
have to take so that the manifest will create successful results when run
from the master?
Dimitri
