Puppet / PUP-11517 Tell puppet it needs a second run Issue Type: New Feature Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2022/04/22 11:40 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Pat Riehecky Some of my puppet modules require more than one run to finish configuring a specific element. For example, my RAID card management module uses facts generated by the management tools.  If these tools are not installed, the module installs them, but because the facts could not be populated the array isn't configured until a second run occurs.  With runs happening every 2 hours at my site, this ends up being a very long time to wait. It would be helpful if there was a way I could tell the agent "after this run, immediately schedule another run". Add Comment

Re: Tell puppet it needs a second run

I found https://forge.puppet.com/modules/morpheu/refacter which is somewhat close to my needs, but having this sort of thing built in would be very helpful.

Re: Tell puppet it needs a second run

An alternative idea, that also comes up from time to time: tell puppet to collect facts again, during a run. And that's also actually what you need? It's not necessarily another Puppet run, you just need to update facts between two puppet resources?
