@Volans @Joe @Marostegui I have prepared 2 approaches to achieve this, one is to call conftool on the perl check script and return a CRIT or WARNING based on the host dc: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/345346
The other is to use the conftool puppet function (does it work, I don't see it being in use?) to decide it beforehand and configuring if it is paging or not: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/449742 Please give me any feedback you can about what is the best (or possible) approach to remove all uses of $::mw_primary puppet variable.
