Description

Hi, The “mount” ( http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/2.7.6/type.html#mount ) type does not allow $device to be a label or an uuid. It would be useful to be able to use the “mount” type to have in /etc/fstab:

(...)
LABEL=somelabel /somedir    ext4    nobarrier,nodiratime,defaults,noatime   1   1
UUID=f6521431-1339-45ba-8ad3-edcec6b2c79e   /opt/mongodb_raid   xfs nobarrier,nodiratime,noatime,defaults   0   0

Alexandre,

Thanks for reporting this issue. After reviewing the puppet source code for the mount type, it seems you should be able to pass any string you want as the device.

mount { '/tmp/testing':
  device => 'UUID=f6521431-1339-45ba-8ad3-edcec6b2c79e',
  ...
}

Can you try specifying the device parameter with something similar to what I have done in the above example.

Specifying the UUID as Kelsey Hightower did in the example above works. If the UUID is entered directly as the ‘device’ parameter, it doesn’t work. It needs to have “UUID=” in front of it, just like in the fstab file and Kelsey’s example.
