[Puppet Users] Dynamically make configuration chnages in files with puppet
Hi, I am beginner to puppet. I have evaluated puppet and want to use puppet for my project. My project is deployment automation task where I have several different servers with me. There are different types of configuration files in my servers. Let me explain the manully process what I am going to be automated using puppet. When I want to setup deployment manually, think there are 3 different servers in my setup, first I unzip those server packs. Then I make changes in the congifuration file of that each server. Then I run server and if I make configurations correctly , the setup will be done. Automating: I will store server packs (zip files) in puppet master side. Then I will send request to master for one by one servers. (If there are 3 servers in my setup , I have to send 3 request to puppet master through 3 clients). Those server are deployed inside separate clients. What I have planned is send all my configuration details along with a request to the puppet master. But one problem with that approach is there are lot of different configurations to be done when I configure a pack. Initially I want to know that 1. could we send our configuration details with a request to the master 2. Can we make configurations changes to the files in the packs with data we get with the request from master side Regards, Malintha Adikari -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
