cmon.conf controller ID issue causing reloads of services on puppet run.

[thaylin]

Something I dont see is adding

controller_id=some-id-hash

do the /etc/cmon.conf. This is causing puppet to remove the line, based on the template and refresh the services. The system then generates a new hash and adds it into the file and it does it over. This refresh causes services to go offline during that time.

Hi @thaylin

Noted on this. We'll update you once we have release the fix for this. For the meantime, I believe it shall be no problem in your end if you can try and edit the templates/cmon.cnf.erb and try to add the controller_id= here or you can use any arbitrary string/integer value as stated here https://severalnines.com/docs/components.html#cmon for controller_id variable.

Thank you, I will need to wait. The issue is I would need to modify the template here in this repository, or fork it and use a forked version for production, since the erb file is in your templates folder. Unless I am missing something this is not like using your crt and key file where you pull it from a local directory.

Hi @thaylin

I have updated the repo and you might be able to try the fixes I have applied. Let me know if this runs with no problem at your end.
