[Puppet Users] Reducing system load

2012-06-19 Thread Duncan

2009-08-19 Thread Duncan Hill
Hello folks, Running 0.24.6, and I need a clue-by-4 with something I'm trying to do. I have a single manifest file, used by 3 servers. Depending on the server name, I need to allocate a different set of variables that get used to populate a host {} block. Since Puppet doesn't work in a top-dow
