Unable to setup Environments in 2015.2

[giridhar kazama]

HI,

I have set up a master with 400+ agents. My master has 2015.2. I have to setup 4 environments and all are test environments. I've tried creating directories named with the test environments at /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/test1 /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/test2 /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/test3 and /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/test4.

I have also changed the environment field to test1 in one of the agents but it doesn't seems to be happy. could anyone help me on this please.

Regards

Giridhar

Could you expand on what you tried and what the output was? I created an empty /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/test directory, refreshed classes in the PE UI instead of waiting for puppet server to refresh on a timer and the test environment was present in the UI.

 

Regards

Giridhar

Thanks alot. That really did the trick. I realized it very lately. I wasn't refreshing the classes so didn't get it immediately.Your help is very much appreciated.

Now I am having a hustle while picking up the hiera data. Its working when I am using the static directory structure in the datadir but it doesn't if I give variables.


static dir : /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/hieradata
dynamic : /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/%{environments}/hieradata

Hi,

You want to specify: %{environment}
rather than: %{environments}
