Resource Type: postconf_master

Defined in:

lib/puppet/type/postconf_master.rb

Providers:

postconf

Overview

Create a new postconf master.cf entry.

Puppet does not really support generating/prefetching resources with multiple namevars, so this type represents the whole service identifier in the :name 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_master { 'smtp/inet':
      command => 'postscreen'
    }

Properties

• chroot (defaults to: undef)

  Whether or not the service runs chrooted to the mail queue directory.

• command

  The command to be executed.

• ensure (defaults to: present)

  The basic property that the resource should be in.

  Supported values:

  • present
  • absent
• private (defaults to: undef)

  Whether or not access is restricted to the mail system.

• process_limit (defaults to: undef)

  The maximum number of processes that may execute this service simultaneously.

  Supported values:

  • undef
  • %r{^\d+$}
• unprivileged (defaults to: undef)

  Whether the service runs with root privileges or as the owner of the Postfix system.

• wakeup (defaults to: undef)

  Automatically wake up the named service after the specified number of seconds.

  Supported values:

  • undef
  • %r{^\d+\??$}

Parameters

• name (namevar)

  The postconf master.cf service/type which should be managed.

• provider

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