puppet, you figure out there is something wrong which must be changed<br>
otherwise it imposes a security risk. You can't change it because<br>
puppet keeps reverting it back and there is no one awake in ops team<br>
to merge the patch.<br>
<br>
What other option do you have other than turning puppet off on that instance?<br>
<br>
I am talking about some service or software that YOU might wrote or<br>
set up and nobody else understand, so there is no point in having any<br>
review from 3rd party. (for example clue-bot)<br>

Even if this might be technically possible, to work like this, I doubt<br>
that anyone would prefer this way of working on labs, unless they had<br>
to. That is why I think that if puppet was the only option to maintain<br>
custom nagios checks, most of people would just not use nagios to<br>
check if their own services are working...<br>
