Define: sysctl::conffile

Represents a file with sysctl kernel parameters in /etc/sysctl.d.

Parameters

content

The content of the file provided as a string. Either this or 'source' must be specified.

source

The content of the file provided as a puppet:/// file reference. Either this or 'content' must be specified.

priority

A numeric value in range 60 - 99. In case of conflict, files with a higher priority override files with a lower priority. Debian reserves 0 - 59 for sysctl settings that are bundled with individual packages. The default is 70. Values in 60 - 69 should be reserved for cluster-wide defaults that should always have a lower priority than role-specific customizations.

If you're not sure, leave this unspecified. The default value of 60 should suit most cases.

Examples

sysctl::conffile { 'hadoop':
  content  => template('hadoop/hadoop.conf.erb'),
  priority => 90,
}

Parameters:

  • ensure (Wmflib::Ensure) (defaults to: present)
  • content (Optional[String]) (defaults to: undef)
  • source (Optional[String]) (defaults to: undef)
  • priority (Integer[0, 99]) (defaults to: 70)
