Puppet users - Jun 2013 - Introducing Pysa - Reverse your servers’ configurations!

Greetings all,

I’m leaving this message about the development of a new configuration
reverse engineering tool: Pysa.

Pysa aims to help anyone who wants to replicate an existing configuration
and not simply clone the entire machine.
It can be use to migrate configurations from one computer to another (as
physical machines to virtual clouds), backup existing configurations, or
any other migration purpose.

After scanning your system configuration, Pysa generates some Puppet
recipes for the basic setup of your servers: groups, users, hosts,
packages, configuration files, SSH keys, services, crons, source
repositories, etc.
From this starting point you can modify the scripts to suit your exact
requirements.

Pysa is open-source software (GNU/GPL license) published under MadeiraCloud
Ltd. Authority, and is still in its early-development stage (alpha release).
Please don’t hesitate to report any bugs, requirements, advice, criticisms,
hate or love messages to either pysa-user@googlegroups.com for public
discussions and pysa@mc2.io for private messages.

We depend on your feedback to help make this a useful tool for the
community.

Best Regards,

Thibault BRONCHAIN
Pysa Lead Developer

Hi!

Indeed, it is similar to Blueprint. There is a quick comparison at the end 
of the Documentation (see links below).

It''s my mistake for the links. You can get all informations about Pysa
on
Github and Pypi:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pysa
http://github.com/MadeiraCloud/pysa

Best regards,
Thibault.
