I wonder if PuppetLabs will work with Amazon to try to add Puppet as an option to OpsWorks as well ? I don''t think people using Puppet with AWS in a stable fashion would try to move to OpsWorks and migrate everything to Chef, but new customers/startups would think twice in choosing Puppet if the service offered in AWS OpsWorks is based on Chef. I haven''t tried OpsWorks yet, so I can''t say much. Any thoughts ? Regards, Felipe -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google...

Hi all, The underlying assumption of membership in any community is that your participation is at worst neutral, and if possible positive. Communities, online or off, generally do what they can to protect themselves from detrimental influences, which is where policies, politeness, moderators, and all that come into play. Puppet''s community has been both fortunate and awesome,

...and then save the results in a PostgreSQL database. As you well know, the config/database.yml file needs the database name, the username, and the password. My procedures for handling this work but are clunky and probably not considered to be best practices. From what I''ve heard, using Chef is the best practice. However, Chef is complicated, and I''m having difficulty making sense of it. In the source code for bsf_scrape (Ruby gem), I have functions in the lib/bsf_scrape.rb file that do the following: 1. Set the database name (stores it in a file) 2. Get the database nam...

Hi! I''m a newbie in Puppet with some Chef experience. Now trying to convert my pet project from Chef to Puppet. When I start a Tomcat is takes some time (several seconds). I need to wait a line "Server startup in" in Tomcat''s log before proceeding. Here is a way which I used in Chef: https://github.com/abrindeyev/do...

Hi According to rdoc: value - the cookie''s value or list of values (as an array). So, I can use arrays, briliant. But.... It does not work (at least on webrick) I wrote a controller: def check_cookies_first cookies[:chef] = {:value => ["first", "second"], :expires => Time.local (2020)} render_text ":)" end def check_cookies_second begin render_text "cookies class is: " + cookies[:chef].class.to_s + " value: " +...

i''m running the following script: #pragma D option quiet profile:::tick-1sec / ++x >= 15 / { exit(0); } io:::start { @io_size[execname] = sum(args[0]->b_bcount); } on exit, the script prints out the value of @io_size, why? there''s no printa(), and i also specified "D option quiet" (i also tried -q). this seems to happen with any kind of probe: on exit(0) all

...testuser" run as root from an interactive ssh session does the right thing: it creates a user account with a UID in the system users range (< 400). Running the same command as a cron job (just for testing), also does the right thing. Now I'm trying to accomplish the same result via chef-client. I'm trying to run "useradd -r" as a simple command, as a bash command, or as a script, from chef-client. It does create the user account, but the UID is in the normal range (> 600), not the system range. It can't be a Chef bug, because it is actually running "...

Hi, we see a growing need for a better Configuration management for our servers. Are there any known good resources for a comparison of e.g. Puppet, Chef, Ansible etc? What would you suggest and why? :) Thanks and Regards . G?tz

Hi, I just updated a 7.0-RELEASE system to 7.1-PRERELEASE. Everything went smoothly. This is on an HP Pavilion dv2600 notebook. In particular I am beyond happy with the new linux emulation updates! I saw all the relevant patches have been committed to RELENG_7 now so I didn't have to do any manual patching. I take it this means 7.1-RELEASE will launch with them? In any case, for the

Hey guys, Has anyone had much success with XCP and Open Stack together? I''m in the process of putting together a open stack test cluster and I thought I might be able to use XCP dom0''s for it.. but to be honest it doesn''t look so good. I tried following these instructions on a separate XCP test machine: http://wiki.openstack.org/XenServerDevelopment At a first test

Where can I find documentation about manual configuration of Gluster peers/volumes? All documentation seems to be about the gluster CLI. I would prefer manual configuration to facilitate automation via scripts (e.g. Puppet/Chef). I also read in this list that it is possible to configure Raid10 via text files... I would also like to experiment with this setup. Any related documents on how to do this would be appreciated. regards Horacio

...se the latest, stable versions of apache and php for my clients without having to create a custom RPM every time a new version comes out. So what I'd like to know is it better in your opinion to install from repos than to install by source as a best practice? Is it always better to use puppet, chef, ansible etc even if the environment is small? I'm sure this is a matter preference, but I would like to know what your preferences are. Thanks, Tim Sent from my iPhone

Hello everyone, Ruby 1.8.7 is EOS now. So, when will Puppet become Ruby 1.9.2+ compatible? I am considering to deploy Puppet on a large hosts of servers. If Ruby 1.9.2 cannot be supported, I have to turn to Chef. Best regards, Tetsu -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
