Hiera 2.0 with Puppet 3.x

[Scott Briggs]

Does anyone have any experience with Hiera 2.0 with Puppet 3.x?  Is that even possible given the newer "all in one" architecture?

Cheers,

Scott

"All in One" did not start until 4.x. In general - even if you managed
to make some odd combination puppet/hiera work, puppet and hiera more or
less need to move at the same time - sometimes bugs are on the puppet
side, and sometimes on the hiera side. A new feature may be in hiera,
but may need support on the puppet side and vice versa.

This is one reason that hiera is only part of the "all in one" from 4.x
forward.

On 3.x it is more difficult to line up versions; you have to look at
what was released at the same time, and then go from there.

Others may have tried the combination you are after already - I am just
responding with the generic answer... i.e. YMMW.

Hi Scott,

We're using Hiera 3.0.5 with Puppet 3.8 on the SIMP project right now with absolutely no issues.

We used Hiera 2 briefly, but moved on to Hiera 3 when it got to be stable.

Thanks,

Trevor
