Puppet users - Jul 2013 - Enterprise Puppet 3 with AIX WPAR support

Hello All

Just wondering where to manage an AIX server with multiple WPARS.  At the 
host level or at each guest level?

It seems like one way would be easier than another.  I just can''t
figure
out which one that is.

I played with this a bit over the last few weeks. You have a few
options, if I understand your question correctly.

Making a wpar with a shared /opt and /usr  will allow you to use the
same PE...sort of. It''s a little bit odd.  With wpars that share /usr
and /opt, you basically run puppet enterprise on the ring0 (for lack
of a better term) node, you could update items within the WPAR volume.

So, I am not sure which one is better either. I certainly would be
interested to hear your use cases or ideas, as I found it WPARs to be
a bit odd to work with on the whole as well.
