Manage aspects of an Ext File system - Puppet Provider

The first provider in this module is extfs_reserved. It's a simple type and provider to manage the amount of space reserved for the root user on an ext file system. You specify the reservations in either blocks or as a percentage

extfs_reserved { '/dev/mapper/vg_logs-lv_mysql':
  ensure  => 'present',
  reserve => '5%',
}


extfs_reserved { '/dev/mapper/vg_novakvm02-lv_root':
  ensure           => 'present',
  reservation_type => 'block',
  reserve          => 1550,
}

This provider uses the tune2fs binary from the e2fsprogs package (on RedHat derived distros). While it is a functional provider it was written as a simple proof of concept to show how you can inline what was an exec.
