@ni-jdyffort May you resolve the conflicts and merge? I'm looking forward for these changes |
@ C24-AK thanks for the comment. I've just fixed the conflicts, but I seem not to have sufficient rights to merge. Can somebody with merge permissions do so? |

this looks wrong. If facter reports arm64 you want to have amd64? Isn't arm64 the equivalent to aarch64?

Hello and thanks for the input!
Initially I tried 'arm64': { $real_arch = 'arm64' } which didn't work back then (node_exporter failed to start or something like that). But it seems to work now. Let me do some more tests ...

I've just checked it again, but the node_exporter compiled for arm is still failing to start:
ci-macos-build-10:bin developer$ file node_exporter
node_exporter: Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64
ci-macos-build-10:bin developer$ ./node_exporter -h
Killed: 9
(I also tried to run the [node_exporter-1.6.1.darwin-arm64.tar.gz](node_exporter-1.6.1.darwin-arm64.tar.gz directly with the same result).
So the only way for us to run it is to install/start it in Rosetta mode, therefor we need to stay with amd64

In that case we should investigate why it fails. Pulling amd64 for all arm64 boxes isn't a correct solution, it's just a workaround for Apple devices. And it will break support for all actual arm64 devices.

Hi, |
The architecture of macOS arm machines, reported by
facter, isarm64. That was not yet reflected ininit.pp.
