<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Penny,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’d like to discuss with you about this 2 patches.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">ntpd-started-no-g-option.patch //change /etc/sysconfig/ntpd<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">ntp-spec-add-TiS-custom-config-files.patch // add ntp.conf file to /etc/<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Can we remove this 2 patches?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In stx/stx-config/puppet-manifests/src/modules/platform/manifests/ntp.pp,
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">it already generates ntp.conf file by puppet<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">file { 'ntp_config':<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> ensure => file,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> path => '/etc/ntp.conf',<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> mode => '0640',<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> content => template('platform/ntp.conf.server.erb'),<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> }<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For /etc/sysconfig/ntpd, I’d like to add this custom file in ntp.pp, then we can remove related patch.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any comment from you? Thanks!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">BTW, I saw some other packages also have pp file in stx/stx-config/puppet-manifests/src/modules/platform/manifests/<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So I can do some modification on existed pp to change/add some config file, right?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For SW patching scenario, it is OK for non-in-service update. After reboot, puppet will apply config again.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But for in-service update, without reboot, how to apply this custom file again after patching. That’s why I thought of using patching-script.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do you have any other proposal?<o:p></o:p></p>
