[Puppet Users] Upgrade from Puppet 2.7.20 to latest !!!
Dear All, I have my puppet servers and clients on puppet 2.7.20 and I am planning to upgrade to the latest version. But the problem is that I have a lot of modules (downloaded from forge and few of my own) which used by hundreds of puppet clients. I need to know 1) Will the functionality of these modules get affected after this upgrade ? 2) Other than ritual of being on the latest verison, are there actually any benefits of upgrading? 3) Any other precautions that I should take during / before / after the upgrade ?

A good thing is to already have cleaned up all deprecation warnings on the master, before going to 3.. If you want to be really sure, compile your catalogs once with 2.7 and then once with 3.3.2 and diff them so you might get an idea what could go wrong. If your modules are in a good shape, then the you likely won''t anythig. There is Volcane''s catalog-diff for that and there is a wrapper script that can assist you doing that: https://github.com/duritong/puppet_catalog_test But you will have to investigate some time to!> 2) Other than ritual of being on the latest verison, are there > actually any benefits of upgrading?speed.> 3) Any other precautions that I should take during / before / after > the upgrade ?Get rid off all deprecation warnings. ~pete -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.15 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlKGAywACgkQbwltcAfKi39V6gCfav2RRfwlRZWM8X2oESphZ6OT b2kAn1B7vmSSgPZTarhVpr2xWZFSmPuy =Mqha -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
