    Never mind... those DSC resources are still just as slow. PE Agent times are inconsistent and we can see those inconsistencies before the change was made too.

    So it seems that SCE_Windows 2.0 and Puppet Agent 8.12.0 don't get along

    It looks like SCE is continuing to corrupt our redhat.repo files. Seen it more frequently lately. Not sure why its happening on some servers and not others but it seems like it makes changes to some repos to enable gpgcheck and then after that can't read the file anymore

    I'm guessing Subscription manager and Puppet end up trying to edit the file at the same time and just destroy it. Anyone have any solutions to this or do I just need to stop forcing the gpgpcheck?

    I'm seeing an issue with the
    sce_mass_mount_opts
    type fail when trying to update any entry in /etc/fstab (RHEL9, stig). The error I'm getting for all of these controls is basically:
    Copy code
    Error: Could not set 'present' on ensure: comparison of NilClass with 14 failed (file: /etc/puppetlabs/puppetserver/code/environments/production/modules/sce_linux/manifests/utils/partitions/non_root_local_options.pp, line: 40)
    fstab entries look like the below for all mounts:
    Copy code
    UUID=0979b5f9-8ca7-49c4-98de-2058d6cd76c1  /tmp  xfs  defaults  0  0

    In SCM is there a way to manually trigger a refresh of the inventory from PE? The docs just mentions changing the polling interval (default 24 hrs)

    is there a Jira issue already for the
    warning: already initialized constant PAM_POSITION_ALIASES
    that comes from
    lib/puppet/provider/sce_pam/augeas.rb
    when you also use puppet-augeasproviders_pam (that file
    augeas.rb
    is a copy of https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-augeasproviders_pam/blob/master/lib/puppet/provider/pam/augeas.rb)?

    I already put a ticket in, but I think an old bug has been reintroduced to SCE_Linux. Seems to only affect RHEL7 and 8 but not 9 and 10 This error pops up every agent run Error while resolving custom fact fact='sce_mount_info', resolution='<anonymous>': unexpected token at ''

    This doesn't seem to work as expected sce_linux:utilsaccount hardeningenforce_nologin: false Needing to override that control because its breaking gitlab

    Hi team We're seeing a checksum mismatch issue after upgrading both the SCM application and the puppetlabs/comply module to version 3.7.0. Error from Puppet agent logs: (I removed actual checksum from below log)
    Copy code
    Resource:  Assessor-CLI-4.60.0.zip
      Class:     Comply::Scanners::Ciscat
      Message:   Download file checksum mismatch
                   expected: --------
                   actual:   --------
    Same error observed for Linux nodes Both the SCM application and the comply module are on 3.7.0. The checksums in the module do not match the files served by the application of the same version. This looks like the module Please check

    Hi team — we're running CIS-CAT scans on Windows Domain Controllers (assessor 4.60.0, profile Windows 2022 DC L1). The scan consistently times out at the 2,400s PE orchestrator limit. Question: What's the supported way to increase Java heap for the 4.60.0 assessor running on Windows nodes? cc: @Jacob Wade

    sce_linux needs to be updated to handle the newer version of the aide software, at least on RHEL based systems such as Rocky 9. aide 0.19.2 drops several config file directives.

    Hello, can someone please expound a bit on SCE 2.7.0 deprecating support for RHEL7? It looks like I can still get a catalog applied on my RHEL7 systems,
    sce_mount_info
    is even more noisy, but otherwise it looks like I can still use SCE on them while we're still transitioning away from that release.
