Hello, i have a couple of VLAN where each has its own subnet, now I would like to use one puppetserver for all these machines. the puppetserver has a DNS entry for each subnet and its own IP-Address VLAN 1: puppet-vm1.domain1 172.1.0.1/255.255.255.0 VLAN 2: puppet-vm1.domain2 172.1.1.1/255.255.255.0 ..... the hostname of the puppetserver is puppet-vm1.domain0, puppet created a

Hey Folks, I''m looking at doing automated provisioning of new servers and am trying to integrate puppet into this process. What I''m wondering though is what the best process for securely registering a new node is. At the moment the first time puppet is run I have to then accept the certificate on the puppetmaster and then run puppet again. What I would like to do is accept the

Hey All, This is probably a gotcha of some kind. That is to say I''ve missed a configuration somewhere. I''ve recently moved over to using mongrel as the puppet server type and having nginx proxy to one of four mongrel instances. What I''m seeing though is that when I try to run a new node (one that has been created post moving to mongrel/nginx) is that it returns with the

Hi, I''m running multiple vservers and have some aspects managed via puppet. I noticed that puppetd consumes from 20 to 60 mb RAM and the longer the process runs, the more RAM it takes. It looks like 60MB is the top what I measured. Having a couple of vservers (11 in my case) this can already take up to 500MB just for puppet! I''m wondering if there''s any downside in

I am trying to get puppet to manage my LDAP users but I don''t appear to be having much success. What I have in puppet.conf is this [puppetmasterd] ldapserver=ldap.myorg.company.com ldapbase=dc=myorg,dc=org ldapuser=cn=admin,dc=myorg,dc=org ldappassword=mysecret ldapparentattr=dc=myorg,dc=org I added the ldapparentattr in desperation and doubt if

Hey All, I''m running into a problem whereby some nodes are struggling to retrieve the metadata for files. I''ve moved all the nodes across to 0.25.1 to try and eliminate version inconsistencies though they still appear. I''ve also started using asynchronous stored configs as well. I''m wondering if this has anything to do with performance on the box and if there

If puppet fails half way into processing a catalog the system might be in an unusable state right? For example if it installs a package but not the one that follows it or can''t set up the config file for whatever reason it doesn''t know how to "undo " the catalog does it? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are

All, I''m trying to figure out the best way to estimate the amount of memory usage that will be taken up by Mongrel and I''m hoping that you have some estimates that can help me. I''m currently estimating the following: Memory Required = Number of running puppetmasters * size of manifests * number of clients managed The mongrel model doesn''t seem to *ever*

Hi appreciate your help. I am new to puppet. I have taken over a system.

How do I prevent the following: I have several web servers behind the load balancer, how do I make sure that when something changes and web servers need to be restarted that they are not all restarted at the same time but rather one by one.

Hey Folks, I''m just starting to look into Puppet though am finding it a bit confusing as to how to get it setup on the network I administer. At the moment it is a combination of RHEL 4 and SLES 10 boxes with windows and novell also. I know that windows / novell is beside the point though am wondering how to get puppet setup on the RHEL and SLES side of things. Any good howto''s

Hello, The Puppet footprint within my company is steadily growing, We took the basic steps to make it more robust (passenger + apache) but in order to meet the needs of a 24x7 shop I need redundancy. I''ve read the Reductive Labs WIKI about redundancy (http://reductivelabs.com/ trac/puppet/wiki/Recipes/HighAvailability) but I was wondering if anyone has experiences (good or bad) using

Hi All, We are wanting to having a Puppet Meetup in NYC on February 3th, 2009, 6:30 PM. Place to be determined. Baring that my wife doesn''t give birth by then (which would prevent me from making it) how does this sound to everyone else? Brian G., Can you rally up the troops and also invite people from other groups? Also let''s have some specific topics to discuss.

(I know more questions... :-)) I know the default for puppetd is to check puppetmasterd every half hour, but my question does each puppetd check at the same time? Or does it depend when puppetd is started or like a cronjob does it run at the 1/2 hour and hour mark? Is there some randomness to the times they run? My point is if they all run at the same time then if you have a large amount of

Hey list, I'm wondering if there is any advantage to be gained by using kerberos with pam_winbind. I've configured pam_winbind and enabled krb5_auth though apart from being granted a ticket, I'm unsure as to any advantage that would be gained by enabling Kerberos.

Hi group, I''m in the process of migrating a puppetmaster to a new host, and didn''t want to have to manually add in my classes and group configs in the console. So I was looking into the console db, and it appears to hold all the info on nodes classes and groups. So my question is this: Is it feasible to dump the console db on the old master and restore it on the new master?
