+<h2><a name="what-do-i-do-when-unattended-upgrades-fail"></a>What do I do when unattended upgrades fail?</h2>
+
+<p>When you receive notification e-mails with a subject of &lsquo;unattended-upgrades result for $machinename&rsquo;, that means that some package couldn&rsquo;t be automatically upgraded and needs manual interaction. The reasons vary, so you have to be careful. Most often you can simply login to the affected machine and run <code>apt-get dist-upgrade</code>.</p>

+<h1><a name="puppet"></a>Puppet</h1>
+
+<h2><a name="where-do-i-find-the-time-a-server-was-last-deployed"></a>Where do i find the time a server was last deployed ?</h2>
+
+<p>Run:</p>
+
+<pre><code>leap history FILTER
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>This will tail the log file <code>/var/log/leap/deploy-summary.log</code>.</p>
+
+<p>If that command fails, you can manually check the puppet state file on the node indicates the last puppetrun:</p>
+
+<pre><code>ls -la /var/lib/puppet/state/state.yaml
+</code></pre>
+
+<h2><a name="what-resources-are-touched-by-puppetleap_platform-servicespackagesfiles-etc"></a>What resources are touched by puppet/leap_platform (services/packages/files etc.) ?</h2>
+
+<p>Log into your server and issue:</p>
+
+<pre><code>grep -v '!ruby/sym' /var/lib/puppet/state/state.yaml | sed 's/\"//' | sort
+</code></pre>
+
+<h2><a name="how-can-i-customize-the-leap_platform-puppet-manifests"></a>How can i customize the leap_platform puppet manifests ?</h2>
+
+<p>You can create custom puppet modules under <code>files/puppet</code>.
+The custom puppet entry point is in class &lsquo;custom&rsquo; which can be put into
+<code>files/puppet/modules/custom/manifests/init.pp</code>. This class gets automatically included
+by site_config::default, which is applied to all nodes.</p>
+
+<p>Of cause you can also create a different git branch and change whatever you want, if you are
+familiar wit git.</p>

+<h2><a name="how-can-i-see-custom-facts-distributed-by-leap_platform-on-a-node"></a>How can i see custom facts distributed by leap_platform on a node ?</h2>
+
+<p>On the server, export the FACTERLIB env. variable to include the path of the custom fact in question:</p>
+
+<pre><code>export FACTERLIB=/var/lib/puppet/lib/facter:/srv/leap/puppet/modules/stdlib/lib/facter/

+
+<ul>
+<li>First of all, you need to have access to the nameserver config of your new domain.</li>
+<li>Update domain in provider.json</li>
+<li>remove all ca and cert files: <code>rm files/cert/* files/ca/*</code></li>
+<li>create ca, csr and certs : <code>leap cert ca; leap cert csr; leap cert dh; leap cert update</code></li>
+<li>deploy</li>
