Hi Raghu, Using exec is not a great way to put machines into maintenance mode. Some other ideas for you to look at:
1/ Use the schedule resource, and schedule meta-parameter, to define the times of day for which puppet should enforce referenced resources. https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/6.18/types/schedule.html 2/ Use a bolt / puppet task to disable the puppet agent at the start of the maintenance, and revert after Cheers Jesse On Thu, 3 Sep 2020 at 18:18, Raghu Ram Baisani <baisaniraghu...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello > Puts the machines into maintenance mode. > I want to execute sleep for 1 hour. > Revert the machines from maintenance mode. > Thanks > Raghuram > > > On Thu, Sep 3, 2020, 12:12 PM Bart-Jan Vrielink <bart...@vrielink.net> > wrote: > >> Hello, >> >> >> No. The try_sleep parameter defines the time to sleep between tries.
