I have several NFS mounts to manage, on many systems. On each system, I
must ensure that the root directory and path exist and have the correct
permissions beforehand, then ensure they are mounted in Puppet.
For each, I would normally do:
file { "/home/directory1":
>
> ensure => directory,
>
> owner => "user",
>
> group => "group",
>
> mode => "755",
>
> }
>
>
>> mount { "/home/directory1":
>
> device => "our-thumper.domain.com:/export/directory1",
>
> atboot => yes,
>
> fstype => "nfs",
>
> options => "tcp,hard,intr,rw,bg",
>
> name => "/home/directory1",
>
> ensure => mounted,
>
> remounts => true,
>
> pass => "0",
>
> require => File["/home/directory1"],
>
> }
>

which isn't very efficient when you have a ton of them to mange.
It doesn't appear that Puppet can iterate through an array, but could I do
something like:
file { "/home/directory1", "/home/directory2", "/home/directory3":
but requiring this File will be a problem in the "mount" pass.
Perhaps a template?
How are others solving this sort of problem? For me, it would be a lot
easier (and more readable) if we could maintain an array at the top of the
rules that contained either the full patch or the basename, then iterate
through them.
