Alex Vandiver ddb9d16132 puppet: Install procps, for pgrep. In puppet, we use pgrep in the collection stage, to see if rabbitmq is running. Sufficiently bare-bones systems will not have `procps` (which provides `pgrep`) installed yet, which makes the install abort when running `puppet` for the first time. Just installing the `procps` package in Puppet is insufficient, because the check in the `unless` block runs when Puppet is determining which resources it needs to instantiate, and in what order; any package installation has yet to happen. As `erlang-base` (which provides `epmd`) happens to have a dependency of `procps`, any system without `pgrep` will also not have `epmd` installed or running. Regardless, it is safe to run `epmd -daemon` even if one is already running, as the comment above notes.	2021-05-03 14:48:52 -07:00

Alex Vandiver ddb9d16132 puppet: Install procps, for pgrep.

In puppet, we use pgrep in the collection stage, to see if rabbitmq is
running.  Sufficiently bare-bones systems will not have
`procps` (which provides `pgrep`) installed yet, which makes the
install abort when running `puppet` for the first time.

Just installing the `procps` package in Puppet is insufficient,
because the check in the `unless` block runs when Puppet is
determining which resources it needs to instantiate, and in what
order; any package installation has yet to happen.  As
`erlang-base` (which provides `epmd`) happens to have a dependency of
`procps`, any system without `pgrep` will also not have `epmd`
installed or running.  Regardless, it is safe to run `epmd -daemon`
even if one is already running, as the comment above notes.
