Needs Assessment
Description
Environment: Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard x64
Puppet Agent: 3.7.2
Example that does not work: `Prefix.ApplicationName.Suffix`.
Example does work: `Prefix.ApplicationName_Suffix`.
Both do work if manually created via the Task Scheduler GUI. There seems to be no name validation for tasks. Is this a bug of the Windows Task scheduler API that Ruby is using or something that Puppet should validate?
We have a naming convention that applies to applications deployed where we use a Prefix for everything to identify a certain range of products and a Suffix for things such as Locale or Versions.
Works:
scheduled_task { "${prefix}.${application}_${suffix}": |
ensure => present,
|
enabled => true, |
command => $command,
|
arguments => $arguments,
|
working_dir => $working_directory,
|
trigger => {
|
schedule => daily,
|
every => 1, |
start_date => '2016-01-01', |
start_time => $start_time
|
}
|
}
|
Does not work:
