How many resources are we talking for the 100 nodes? If you're running puppetdb one way to do this is to get a report on the nagios server that does the collection: curl -G -H 'Accept: application/json' 'http://puppetdb:8080/resources' --data-urlencode 'query=["=", ["node", "name"], "nagiosserver

Does this happen across all nodes? This is an indication you might have a resource that affects a large set of nodes that suddenly changes every 4 days. In the catalogs table, the 'hash' is just a hash of the catalogue data, if anything in the catalogue changes - it changes. And new entries are cr

Thank you for the reply. I decided to go with the approach of gracefully handling the fact that the require will fail from the fact and report it, thus allowing the RPM to be installed correctly. Then the fact will populate on a subsequent run. Birch On Tuesday, January 22, 2013 3:18:12 PM U

Hi Juan, I believe your puppet.conf file should contain the line: [main] server = puppet.mydomain.cr and not "PUPPET_SERVER". At least, that is how my clients determine which server to connect to. This error usually is a failure of the client to find the puppetmaster. Can you ping the pupp
