You can add further facts to be ignored by separating each fact with a comma.

Tip In Chapter 7, you'll see how to enhance Facter by adding your own facts for Puppet to use.

Resource Types

In this chapter, we've seen a few examples of the various resource types that can be used to manage resources on our nodes. We saw the file type resource that can manage files and directories, the service type that manages services and daemons, the group type that manages groups, and the package type that provides package management for our nodes. But these are not the only resource types available to us. There is a rich collection of resource types that we can make use of to configure resources on our nodes. It is also a collection that is growing rapidly as the developers and members of the community contribute new types. You can see the full list of resource types, their attributes, and examples of their functionality at http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ TypeReference.

Note -* In Chapter 7, I'll also discuss how you can use Ruby to create your own resource types and further enhance Puppet.

In Table 3-2, you can see a full list of the current resource types available at the time of writing.
