Hi all, We''ve recently started exploring the role / profile / component module described by Craig Dunn in his blog here: http://www.craigdunn.org/2012/05/239/ and discussed on the list the other day.

I''m new to Puppet, and I''m a software developer, not a sysadmin, so be gentle. I have puppet managing some files via templates, and one of the template variables that needs to be plugged in is a password of sorts that shouldn''t be generally available. In particular, it can''t be stored in the manifest, as that''s stored in version control, and the

...ers with a puppetmaster and various nodes, all running Debian Wheezy with the Puppet 3 packages from Puppetlabs. The Puppetmaster is configured with Passenger and Apache. I am trying to use hiera-gpg to encrypt passwords, I have it installed and have created a key as described here: http://www.craigdunn.org/2011/10/secret-variables-in-puppet-with-hiera-and-gpg/ On the Puppetmaster server I can use the encrypted data in a manifest and also access it on the commandline from heira.

How do folks feel about getting Puppet job listings on this list? I''ve rejected a few that we quite spammy, but when the subject matter really is a system admin with puppet experience, the decision becomes a bit different. I''m looking for general feelings. A simple +1 or -1 would be great. Mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

Hi, I bumped into the following this afternoon (on a 2.7.19 puppet master/agent combo): consider a class profile::tomcat in module profile with the following content: $ cat modules/profile/manifests/tomcat.pp class profile::tomcat { class { ''tomcat'': } notice(''Class profile::tomcat in module profile'') } and $ cat modules/tomcat/manifests/init.pp

The hosts also have a "type" dimension. This "type" dimension could (should) ideally be used to configure the system (fill in a bunch of variables). Problem is, I''m not sure how the best way to do

Hello, I ran into an issue today as I began to transition into a production environment from my Puppet testbed. I am using Puppet Enterprise 2.7 for Ubuntu (x64) and ran through the Installer and configured the Console, Cloud Provisioner, and Master on the same box. This all went well. I then began setting up agent1 for testing and after installing PE, updating the environment in the

I''ve gotten an install of solr working, but it''s pretty much a hack job at the moment. If y''all could give me your thoughts on how to improve my setup, I''d appreciate it. apache-tomcat is an rpm of Tomcat 7 that references the oracle jdk instead of openjdk. Thanks. class solr { service { ''iptables'' : ensure =>

Hello Everyone, I''m still pretty new with puppet so please bare with me. I tried searching and I''m pretty sure I''ve ready my answer but I''m not sure if I''m going down the right path just yet.
