• Frontier http://frontier.cern.ch/

Example

class{'shoal::agent':
  amqp_server_url => 'shoal.heprc.uvic.ca',
  global_access   => false,
  domain_access   => true,
  logging_level   => 'DEBUG'
}

This will:

Types

A new type has been added shoal_agent_config based on the puppetlabs/inifile type.

config_shoal_agent{'general/squid_port':
   value  => '4000',
   notify => Service['shoal-agent']
}

would configure shoal_agent configuration with

[general]
squid_port = 4000
