Bug #4650
closedMultiline header is added at each run on managed files
Description
Every time Rudder edits a file it adds a header, but due to a cfengine bug (https://cfengine.com/dev/issues/1525) at each run it adds a new one ...
A simple workaround: modify the header parameter in the webapp (config management -> Parameters page) and put a simple one liner header : "### Managed by Rudder, edit with care
The title says it all. /etc/ntp.conf looks like this now:
############################################################# ### This file is protected by your Rudder infrastructure. ### ### Manually editing the file might lead your Rudder ### ### infrastructure to change back the server?s ### ### configuration and/or to raise a compliance alert. ### ############################################################# ### This file is protected by your Rudder infrastructure. ### ### Manually editing the file might lead your Rudder ### ### infrastructure to change back the server?s ### ### configuration and/or to raise a compliance alert. ### ############################################################# ### This file is protected by your Rudder infrastructure. ### ### Manually editing the file might lead your Rudder ### ### infrastructure to change back the server?s ### ### configuration and/or to raise a compliance alert. ### ############################################################# ... repeated like a thousand times ... ### This file is protected by your Rudder infrastructure. ### ### Manually editing the file might lead your Rudder ### ### infrastructure to change back the server?s ### ### configuration and/or to raise a compliance alert. ### ############################################################# ### This file is protected by your Rudder infrastructure. ### ### Manually editing the file might lead your Rudder ### ### infrastructure to change back the server?s ### ### configuration and/or to raise a compliance alert. ### ############################################################# ### This file is protected by your Rudder infrastructure. ### ### Manually editing the file might lead your Rudder ### ### infrastructure to change back the server?s ### ### configuration and/or to raise a compliance alert. ### ############################################################# ### This file is protected by your Rudder infrastructure. ### ### Manually editing the file might lead your Rudder ### ### infrastructure to change back the server?s ### ### configuration and/or to raise a compliance alert. ### ### This file is protected by your Rudder infrastructure. ### ### Manually editing the file might lead your Rudder ### ### infrastructure to change back the server?s ### ### configuration and/or to raise a compliance alert. ### ############################################################# # /etc/ntp.conf fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift logfile /var/log/ntp.log server ntp.example.com

What I did to get back to initial state is:
- Disabled ntp directives
- Create enforce file content directives to provide a clean file
- Created a post-hook to the enforce file content directives to clean ${RUDDER_BASE}/modified-files/*, ${RUDDER_BASE}/cfengine-community/outputs/* and ${RUDDER_BASE}/cfengine-community/state/* - It was never that big before.

We should at least fix the header on new install and migration by replacing it with a one liner "### Managed by Rudder, edit with care ###". so it does not break on update.
Maybe adding some warnings would be a good idea. and add an entry in the FAQ
I updated the description to reduce the amount of header to make the issue more readable
