[Puppet-users] Virtual resource not found

[Joshua Timberman]

Hi All,

I asked on IRC but didn't have everything organized and most people
seemed busy. Hoping someone can see what I'm missing here.

I'm trying to create a network module, used similar to the 'users'
configuration described in the Best Practices document. I have a users
module which has that and it works with similar syntax to below. If I
"unvirtualize" the network_interface for test1a-eth1 under the
network_dmz_virt class, this works.

Please help. Let me know if I need to provide more information. Node
information is set up per the Best Practices, in nodes.pp and
templates.pp respectively. The other manifests are in
modules/network/manifests/(classes|definitions).

test1a:~
$ sudo puppetd --server 10.1.0.70 --test
notice: Ignoring cache
err: Could not retrieve configuration: Failed to find virtual
resources Network_interface[test1a-eth1]
warning: Not using cache on failed configuration

node test1a inherits test_server {
    realize Network_interface["test1a-eth1"]
}

node test_server inherits basenode {
    include network_dmz_virt
}

(all basenode classes are working)

class network_dmz_virt {
    $domain    = "mydomain.com"
    $broadcast = "10.1.0.255"
    $network   = "10.1.0.0"
    $netmask   = "255.255.255.0"
    $gateway   = "10.1.0.1"

    @network_interface { "test1a-eth1":
        hostname  => "test1a",
        iface     => "eth1",
        ip        => "10.1.0.5",
        domain    => $domain,
        broadcast => $broadcast,
        network   => $network,
        netmask   => $netmask,
        gateway   => $gateway,
    }
}

define network_interface ( $hostname, $iface, $ip, $domain,
$broadcast, $network, $netmask, $gateway) {
    file { "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-$iface":
        owner   => root,
        group   => root,
        mode    => 644,
        content => template("network/ifcfg.erb"),
    }
    file { "/etc/sysconfig/network":
        owner   => root,
        group   => root,
        mode    => 644,
        content => template("network/network.erb"),
    }
}
