[Puppet Users] Re: How do I set global noop?

I'm trying to set a global noop but it doesn't seem possible,

There are 2 bugs open about this which to me look pretty serious as the
expected behaviour isn't the case.

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/21286
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6549

If anyone has a work around (that doesn't include modifying puppet.conf
file) I would be very interested.

Sam,

You could make some changes to you site.pp and set some defaults like this
Exec {
schedule => $::globalvars_schedule,
noop => $::globalvars_noop,
}
File {
schedule => $::globalvars_schedule,
noop => $::globalvars_noop,
}
Group {
schedule => $::globalvars_schedule,
noop => $::globalvars_noop,
}
Mount {
schedule => $::globalvars_schedule,
noop => $::globalvars_noop,
}
Package {
schedule => $::globalvars_schedule,
noop => $::globalvars_noop,
}
Service {
schedule => $::globalvars_schedule,
noop => $::globalvars_noop,
}
User {
schedule => $::globalvars_schedule,
noop => $::globalvars_noop,
}

..... and more .....



Make sure that all puppet types you use within you modules are covered in
the site.pp and have the noop => $::globalvars_noop added.

The final step is to set the topscope variable 'globalvars_noop' somewhere
(for example hiera, or Puppet console) and your node will be run with noop.
No need to touch any puppet config on the clients, and very easy to manage
:-)
