@spp are there any plans to support new operating system releases in the future sooner?

bastelfreak

03/28/2023, 6:44 PM

and not with a year+ delay?

Yes, there are plans.

bastelfreak

03/28/2023, 6:45 PM

or to rephrase, why is the delay always so huge?

I'd be happy with beta testing el9 puppet server sooner rather then later 🙂

Honestly, it was the legacy priorities of previous leadership teams. The new leadership teams are fully committed to getting new OS support out quickly, but there's a backlog of work that is still being slogged through to catch up.

With ACME, I decided to use puppet and to centralize the deployment of the certificates, for the following reasons: 1. Centralize logs, monitoring, and troubleshoot certbot only in one place. 2. If you use a provider, other than Letsencrypt you have to use tokens to issue the certificates. Provisioning the token on the test environment, where developers, consultants, IT, DevOps, project managers, the cleaning stuff has got access was not an option. 3. I needed to segregate teams access, and i couldn't distribute the same token to everyone. 4. providing write access to DNS, from everywhere, was not an option

has anyone ever tried the systemd timer from voxpupuli systemd module? I have added the following code:

Copy code

systemd::timer {
    'cni-purge.timer':  # get rid of unused VXLANs
      service_source => "puppet:///modules/${module_name}/cni-purge.service",
      timer_source   => "puppet:///modules/${module_name}/cni-purge.timer";
    'cni-up.timer':  # ensure that the VXLANs are up and running
      service_source => "puppet:///modules/${module_name}/cni-up.service",
      timer_content  => epp(
        "${module_name}/cni-up.timer.epp", {
          keep_vxlan_up_cron_interval => $keep_vxlan_up_cron_interval,
        }
      );
}
but if I run systemctl list-timers --all I do not see my jobs :slightly_smiling_face:

Copy code

service { 'installer':
    ensure => 'running',
    enable => 'true',
  }
If this fails run:
  exec { 'test-installer':
    command   => 'choco upgrade installer -y --force',
    logoutput => true,
    provider  => powershell,
    }

I can't figure out how to get the exec to run if the service fails

bastelfreak

03/29/2023, 6:54 PM

An installer that runs as a service?

Les Shiner

03/29/2023, 6:55 PM

well, no i just put that name in there

Les Shiner

03/29/2023, 6:55 PM

i'm checking for a service, if that service isn't there then i'm running an installer

bastelfreak

03/29/2023, 6:56 PM

this is an antipattern. dont do that

Les Shiner

03/29/2023, 6:56 PM

i've gotten it to run, but it's always running the installer

Les Shiner

03/29/2023, 6:56 PM

advice on what to do?

bastelfreak

03/29/2023, 6:56 PM

if this is distributed via choco, cant you use the package resource?

bastelfreak

03/29/2023, 6:57 PM

which notifies the service
