Skipped schedule resources in reports

[Greg Sutcliffe]

Hi all,

Since upgrading a few test machines from 2.6.7 to 2.7.3, I've noticed something slightly odd. Every single run reports 6 skipped resources, yet the reports are empty - they only state the execution time as per usual). On digging further it seems that the auto-generated Schedule resources (type/schedule.rb, line 307) are the entities being skipped, presumably because I'm not using them in any of my manifests.

This is leading to a lot of reports with spurious data in them - since I don't use schedules, why should I care that Puppet skipped the default ones? This wouldn't be an issue, but I'm processing the reports and producing emails which summarize activity in the last hour, so for every 2.7.3 node, I'm seeing 12 skipped resources per hour, which is noise that swamps the real data of resources that have changed for good reason.

Is there a way to disable these default schedules, or the reporting of them? I tried "--ignoreschedules" on the commandline, but I get the impression that this causes other resources to run outside their normal schedule, rather than disabling the schedules themselves.

As a hack, I added "return Array.new" to the self.mkdefaultschedules listed above, which stops the resources being generated, but this seems an ugly hack, and one I seem to have to make on every node. Is there a better way?

Regards,

Greg

i met this problem too, and also don't know why some resource's type turned into Schedule, are there someone can give me a reason?

oh, i make a mistake, the schedule resources are not turned from other resources, they are created by default.
