pool_group fails if account has multiple groups

[milliams]

At Birmingham we have a set of users in our users.conf like:

7000:lhb000:7000:lhcb:lhcb::
7001:lhb001:7000:lhcb:lhcb::
...
7098:lhb098:7000:lhcb:lhcb::

When I call grid_pool_accounts { 'lhcb':} I get the error:

Error: Failed to apply catalog: Parameter gid failed on Group[lhcbsgm,lhcb]: Invalid GID 7002,7000 at /etc/puppet/environments/production/modules/grid_pool_accounts/manifests/pool_group.pp:10

This is because the function get_pool_gid() returns the last group id that matches 'lhcb' which gives 7002,7000 which is passed directly to a Puppet group definition in pool_group.pp which is an invalid GID.

I can't see where the secondary groups are created either. Is this functionality missing?

Hi Matt
I know about this issues so I took the easy way out by using yaim for pool creation. Feel free to change it.
