This is a SIMP module

This module is a component of the System Integrity Management Platform, a compliance-management framework built on Puppet.

If you find any issues, they can be submitted to our JIRA.

Setup

What at affects

• atd service
• /etc/at.deny
• /etc/at.allow

Usage

To use this module, simply include the class as follows:

include 'at'

Users can also be added to /etc/at.allow with the at::user defined type, or the at::users array in hiera. The following example adds a few users to /etc/at.allow:

at::users:
  - foo
  - bar

Development

Please read our [Contribution Guide] (https://simp.readthedocs.io/en/stable/contributors_guide/index.html).

Acceptance tests

This module includes Beaker acceptance tests using the SIMP Beaker Helpers. By default the tests use Vagrant with VirtualBox as a back-end; Vagrant and VirtualBox must both be installed to run these tests without modification. To execute the tests run the following:

bundle install
bundle exec rake beaker:suites

Please refer to the SIMP Beaker Helpers documentation for more information.
