So I am messing around with puppet dashboard and for the most part for what I am working on it fits the bill for an ENC. The only question I have is I need to pass information about a customer to set up resources and the system can have multiple customers on it. What is the best way to handle complex data? Would I be able to pass json data for example? -- You received this message because you

I have a puppet master on Centos 6.3 connected and working properly with other Centos 6.3 agent. I installed puppet agent via gems on a RED HAT 4 node.

How can I configure F5 load balancer to be infront of multiple puppet masters? The SSL will break as the server name if different, hostname of the VIP on the LB vs hostnames of each masters, right? Can you shed some light? Thanks. -- Hai Tao -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to this group, send email to

I am wondering how to manually (using openssl instead of puppet cert command) create CA that would be usable by Puppet? The goal would be to script creation of such CA''s to deploy them on multiple puppetmasters, instead of certificates being created on them via puppet cert command. Any ideas on how to do it? I was only able to find something like that:

Is there any documentation on doing the ssl termination on the F5? The only thing I found is http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Load_Balancing_F5 which is only providing the iRule and not suggested configurations or starting points? I currently use an F5 to load balance my puppet masters but its just a pass through and I was wondering if cookie persistence would be useful in

I am having an issue with templates that I cant quite figure out why it is having an issue. I am using ruby dsl to read a template from a database and it keeps having problems with anything other than <%= var %> type definitions. I even went as far cutting and pasting from the puppet online documentation just to see if it were maybe something I goofed. I pasted below the tested template
