Hi folks,
I'm trying to track down an issue with my PE installation. I've been
using exported resources to configure my Nagios monitoring since Puppet
0.2.6 but I've just noticed that tags are not behaving as I expected.
The VMs in my estate all have exported resources like this:
@@nagios_service { "check_ping_${::fqdn}":
check_command => 'check_ping',
service_description => 'Ping',
}
and there is a declaration in site.pp to set the resource default, so
these exported resources only get realised on the Nagios server that
they are targeted at:
Nagios_service {
host_name => $::fqdn,
tag => 'monitor.resnet.bris.ac.uk',
use => 'generic-service',
}
I have independently verified that my site.pp is being included.
Now on my Nagios server, I am collecting the resources like this:
Nagios_service <<| tag == $::fqdn |>> {
require => Package['nagios'],
notify => Service['nagios'],
owner => 'root',
group => 'nagios',
mode => '0644',
}
So appropriate resources will get realised on the suitable Nagios
server, so we can explicitly target Nagios checks for prod and dev VMs
at prod and dev Nagios servers. However, Nagios is not realising any
exported resources when I set the filter `tag == $::fqdn` so it looks
like the resources are not being tagged properly. I used puppet query to
look at the exported resources in PuppetDB and found that they are
indeed not tagged with the hostname of the Nagios server,
monitor.resnet.bris.ac.uk.
$ puppet query "resources[certname, type, title, tags] { exported = true
and type = 'Nagios_service' and title =
'check_ping_build-el7.resnet.bris.ac.uk'}"
[ {
"certname" : "build-el7.resnet.bris.ac.uk",
"type" : "Nagios_service",
"title" : "check_ping_build-el7.resnet.bris.ac.uk",
"tags" : [ "check_ping_build-el7.resnet.bris.ac.uk", "class",
"uob_nagios", "uob_nagios::client", "nagios_service", "client" ]
} ]
Any idea why my tag is not being applied as expected? I've checked that
site.pp is being applied and also that the other resource defaults in
Nagios_servier (e.g. the hostname => $::fqdn) is being properly set.
Thanks,
Jonathan
