Hi again.
It's probably a better idea to use a dedicated backup tool to do this.
Puppet wasn't designed as a backup tool. It can likely be setup to manage
the backup software and such.
I personally do backups with amanda which I manage with puppet using a
module I found and some extra classes to generate some exported resources
to configure the actual backups on the amanda server.
I use another tool to do mysql backups it's called xtrabackup and it only
does MySQL databases.
I then use rsync (Also managed with puppet) to copy those backups to a
backup server.
Pete.

Puppet doesn't have a built-in way to grab data from the client-side and
save it on the Master. There IS the Filebucket (
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/type.html#filebuckethttp://docs.puppetlabs.com/man/filebucket.html) but that's not something
I would feel comfortable doing (it's better for backing up a file before
Puppet replaces the file).
Having said that, you could have exec resources for each task (creating a
database dump, sending the task to a remote server) that would model this,
but you would have to specify what each task means (i.e. HOW it gets the
data dump and HOW it sends it back to the Master).
Does that make sense?

Hi,
I'm newbie to puppet, and I was wondering if it is possible to get
files from nodes to master, not only in uniderictional way like master to
agent nodes.
To be more specific, I need to create dumps of client's database and
get it back to the server.
Thank you!
