You have always been able to use `curl` instead of `cfn-signal`. There are examples of that in the documentation.

Hi all, I have been trying a few things in heat on Juno over the last few days, and thanks to larsks on IRC, I managed to get really far. I have encountered 2 problems 1) The package heat-cfntools is no longer available in either of the rdo repository or epel for el7, It was available for el6. How best can we get hold of this package for CentOS 7. Or in-fact do we do the cfn-signal in a different way, and we no longer need to use this command? 2) I have been trying to to give unique names/numbers to hosts that are created through the "OS::Heat::ResourceGroup" resource, this supposedly has a feature where we can use %index% to add unique numbers to any of the variables. But this fails to work with the following error. Error parsing template file:///root/hpc.yaml while scanning for the next token found character that cannot start any token in "<unicode string>", line 207, column 23 I have pasted the contents of hpc.yaml that gives the error here -> http://fpaste.org/139239/, this is an amended template from that larsks pointed me to.

Any insight on any of the above would be great -- Arif Ali IRC: arif-ali at freenode LinkedIn: http://uk.linkedin.com/in/arifali _______________________________________________ Rdo-list mailing list Rdo-list(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rdo-list
