If you have any questions/suggestions for anything related to the console, any of the console services (RBAC, Classifier, Activity Service) or the Orchestrator, ask away.

Hello. We were really hoping to get an easy way in Tasks and Plans to filter out nodes that are not connected please 😄

gotcha, yeah, so some kind of toggle to just exclude them from the target list

Yeah exactly. That would be super helpful.

question: would it be more useful to be able to toggle them on and off in the “results” table, or would an “exclude disconnected nodes” checkbox in the inventory search be better?

(I’m assuming this is only desired for the “Node list” targets)

not pql query or node group

I find myself often getting to tasks or plans from the status page or node groups so I am usually only looking at the results table. So that would be more convenient for my work flow but I could see both options being useful depending on the use case

Hi folks, Have a question about open source puppet or Puppet Platform releases, ask away!

1). Place the PFX cert on your desktop, then convert it into .cer with this command openssl pkcs12 -in USDA.pfx -nokeys -out USDA.cer When prompted for password, put the password in (12345) 2). Download the latest Citrix Workspace app. (not sure are you using Intel Mac or M1 Mac). https://www.citrix.com/downloads/workspace-app/ Once you finish the download, click the DMG file, and first uninstall the old one. Then install the new one (upgrades don’t seem to work). Do not add account/email address/work address. Then click ok or finish. Then go to Keychain access app and select the cert and select Get info and Trust the cert.

o/ you mentioned an option in Puppet to disable legacy facts. Is that still planned? Can you talk a bit about the current status of it?

Hi @bastelfreak sure thing. So there are 2 parts to disabling legacy facts. First, we've added an option so that the agent can exclude legacy facts when requesting a catalog. That change has been merged to puppet#main, so you can give that a try now. See https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/PUP-11662.

ah nice. So I can play with it in 7.21 I guess

so you should be able to set

include_legacy_facts=false

in puppet.conf or specify

--no-include_legacy_facts

on the command line. Note in order to opt into this, puppet manifests and hiera configuration cannot reference legacy facts

In Puppet 8, we plan on changing the default value to

true

so you should be able to set

include_legacy_facts=false

in puppet.conf or specify

--no-include_legacy_facts

on the command line. Note in order to opt into this, puppet manifests and hiera configuration cannot reference legacy facts

At Vox Pupuli we've a puppet-lint plugin for replacing legacy facts, and I was able to get that into pdk-templates, so I think cleaning up Puppet Agent is more work than cleaning up most modules at the moment

is it this one https://github.com/mmckinst/puppet-lint-legacy_facts-check?

yes

in combination with https://github.com/mmckinst/puppet-lint-top_scope_facts-check

https://rubygems.org/gems/voxpupuli-puppet-lint-plugins we've this meta gem that pulls in all puppet-lint plugins we recommend (and pdk-templates now uses that as well)

ah cool, do you have commit rights to merge https://github.com/mmckinst/puppet-lint-legacy_facts-check/pull/39?
