Resource Type: postconf

Defined in:

lib/puppet/type/postconf.rb

Providers:

postconf

Overview

Create a new postconf entry.

Puppet does not really support generating/prefetching resources with multiple namevars, so this type represents the whole parameter identifier in the :parameter property. This includes the postmulti instance. Valid formats are:

 * service/type
 * instance::service/type

**Autorequires:** If Puppet is managing the postmulti instance for this entry,
it will be autorequired.

Example:

    postconf { 'myhostname':
      value => 'foo.bar'
    }

Properties

• ensure (defaults to: present)

  The basic property that the resource should be in.

  Supported values:

  • present
  • absent
• value

  The value the postconf parameter should be set to.

Parameters

• parameter

  The postconf parameter which should be set.

  Supported values:

  • %r{^([^/]+::)?[a-zA-Z0-9]+(?:_[a-zA-Z0-9]+)*$}
• provider

  The specific backend to use for this ‘postconf` resource. You will seldom need to specify this — Puppet will usually discover the appropriate provider for your platform.
