Hello, I really didn't expect this to be difficult, but I've been struggling with this all day :( I'm running CentOS 5.3, with rubygems, rack and fastthread, from EPEL. I'm running puppet-0.25.0-1 built from the spec file in the latest stable tarball. I'm using mod_passenger-2.2.5-2.el5 from J

I wouldn't mind having failure detection. Say somehow a bad copy of a .conf file is distributed; and the service fails to start. If that can be detected and used as a condition, puppet could than call up another manifest to drop in a default/backup copy of the .conf file and restart the service a

puppet is usually not using too much of cpu.. (unless your users are running on the puppetmaster ;)) maybe you can restrict the amount of things puppet do in each run with the schedule metadata. Ohad On Mon, Oct 19, 2009 at 5:54 PM, Xavier Beaudouin wrote: > CPU usage, memory is not (yet) a pro

cpu or memory? you can run puppet with nice, but if it will restart services, they will be niced too. if its memory, you can swtich to cron. cheers, Ohad On Mon, Oct 19, 2009 at 5:42 PM, Xavier Beaudouin wrote: > Hello there, > > I am some complains from people there at my work that puppetd "ta

No objections here. I seem to recall that there had a been a discussion at PuppetCamp about perhaps moving to a pattens collection instead of set of best practices - not sure if anyone has bandwidth to to work on this but it might help to keep it in mind. Dan North wrote an article on this.[1]
