PuppetDB: Some resources not showing up in reports

[Dirk Heinrichs]

Hi,

using Puppet4 together with a PostgreSQL-backed PuppetDB to store reports. We have some exec resources that don't show up in the reports stored in PuppetDB (but in the "puppet agent" output as well as last_run_report.yaml).

These particular exec resources emit lots of console output. Could this be the reason for them being omitted from the reports stored in PuppetDB?

Thanks...

    Dirk

No, that shouldn't make a difference. I just tried to replicate this and my resource showed up in the reports output -- do you have a shareable manifest that will reproduce the issue?

Unfortunately not. It installs our inhouse SW... What about a simple manifest which exec's a script that just prints 1 or 2 thousand lines to stdout.

Bye...

That's what I tried the other day, but the resource showed up fine. Just confirmed it again. If you'd like to trouble shoot feel free to open a ticket up. Seems like there's something strange going on, I'm just not sure we've got the cause right.
