I''m trying to figure out if there is a common/working setup that people are using to host puppet in remote sites. At first our setup was that we have several puppetmasters (PM) in site A and a couple in our smaller site B. In site A we are also hosting Foreman and our mysql DB for storeconfigs. site A and B are connected via a WAN that is fairly slow. With this setup the issue I

Hi I am reading and configuring puppet in relation to http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/UsingMongrelOnEnterpriseLinux The question I have is in relation to the ssl certificates generated the first time the puppetmaster service is run and the ability to use a CNAME. If the host that i am running the puppetmaster on is server.example.com and i want to use puppet.example.com as a CNAME that

Hi Guys, Im trying to turn on storeconfigs with a mysql db backend. On my testing server in our lab, i configured this successfully and can see if keeping information on all test hosts. When trying to implent the same idea onto our production puppet server, I get the following errors: Aug 26 16:35:53 opsynxsr0097 puppetmasterd[27003]: (/Settings[/etc/

Im new to puppet and installed it in my home lab to mess with, when i installed it i used the hostname rather than FQDN so went back and changed puppet and reran the certificate tool to regenerate the certificates etc, the agent works fine now but i am getting an mccollective error i think, is there anything in the config i need to change for mccollective after altering the name to the FQDN?

I did a fresh install on Ubuntu 12.04 with apt packages from puppet labs. I have agents talking to my puppetmaster. Puppetmaster is running apache/passenger connected to puppetdb and puppet-dashboard is setup to use puppetdb but it is not able to see any reports submitted to puppetdb. When an agent connects to master I see : Info: ''replace facts'' command for hostname

Hi I am a newbie to puppet. I have tried an initial config serving a simple file & dir from the puppetmaster, but the client will not mount. What obvious mistake am I making, I wonder? puppetmaster is a DNS alias for osiris3. Config files: [root@osiris3 puppet]# cat fileserver.conf [config] path /data/puppet/manifests/files allow *.pinnacle.co.uk [root@osiris3 puppet]# cat puppet.conf

Hi all, I''m using the version 0.24.1 with strange problem: When I enable storeconfigs in puppetmaster (puppet.conf) I have the following error on clients debug: Finishing transaction -604715208 with 0 changes info: Loading fact hardware_platform info: Loading fact dmi debug: Retrieved facts in 2.12 seconds debug: Calling puppetmaster.freshness *err: Could not retrieve configuration:

Hello, I just installed the latest version of puppet and puppetmaster on an up to date RHEL4 system. If I turn on ''storeconfigs'' on the puppetmaster server I get the following error: debug: Calling puppetmaster.getconfigerr: Could not retrieve configuration: Uncaught exception No such file to load -- sqlite3 in method puppetmaster.getconfig I have gems and rails installed

Hi all, hoping someone may have encountered a problem similar to this before: On my customer''s EC2 based infrastructure, we have implemented the nodeless, truth driven module outlined by Jordan Sissel here http://www.semicomplete.com/blog/geekery/puppet-nodeless-configuration. It''s quite an effective model, especially in the realm of EC2... we still have a puppetmaster

Hello all, I have what is certainly a stupid problem on my part. I have setup puppet in a test environment and it''s been working wonderfully. I am now in the process of moving this to our production systems and I have rebuilt our puppetmaster completely from scratch using the same modules/manifests, etc. from my test system. Unfortunately I am running into an issue with what I

I was looking into the reporting features in puppet today and realized that though I want the reports I don''t want to bog my puppetmasters down with the task of generating the rrd and png files. Also I already have a server set up to do reporting on various other things that already has the space/CPU cycles and that''s where everyone already goes to look for information. Plus we

PuppetDB 0.11.0 is the fifth beta release on the road to 1.0. Changes include new features and bug fixes. For details on changes in this release, please see the release notes below. Please note that upgrading may take longer than in previous releases, due to new indices being added to the database. In our upgrades with large datasets (~2300 nodes, 900k resources) we didn''t see upgrade

I have a working configuration using external nodes, but when I enable storeconfigs using either Sqlite or MySQL, nodes no longer get assigned their classes from the external nodes script. I''m currently using the 0.25.4-2ubuntu6 packages from Ubuntu 10.4. Disabling storeconfigs and restarting puppetmaster causes nodes to be assigned classes from the external nodes script. I''ve

Hi there! I´m trying to get my PuppetmasterDB running. Problem is, though I´m not getting any errors from the puppetmaster there is nothing stored in the database, not even tables are created. I tried "puppetmasterd --dbmigrate", didn´t help either. rails.log is kinda empty too.. Thing is: it kinda works anyway, there is just nothing stored in the DB - exported a user on host A,

All- Poking around in the bug database it looks like storeconfigs is being actively worked on. I am using 2.7.6 on my master as well as all the clients. I have clients boot , start puppet and get a signed cert via auto signing. The nagios module (and currently the only thing puppet does) complains a lot during compile time about not having storeconfigs enabled, which is not the case in my

Hi, I''ve created two Nginx patches (see at the end of this message) to allow a simpler Nginx configuration for your Mongrel puppetmasters. The two main issues with Nginx in front of puppet were: * no CRL support * no optional certificate verification (and thus we''re forced to have two separate configs on two different ports, and to use --ca_port). Now, it is as simple as

I am trying to setup Puppet + Mongrel on RHEL5. So far I have followed this document: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Using_Mongrel_On_Enterprise_Linux The puppetmasters all start up and Apache starts up on 8140. However, when my client connects I get the following errors: [root@lv1764p puppet]# puppetd --server puppetdev.encana.com --no- daemonize -o -v info: Retrieving

Dear All, I know puppetDB its more faster than storeconfigs, but to replace storeconfigs with puppetDB into production server Its need more explanation than some link from puppetlabs, need prove to my bos and team. For testing i just have 1 puppetmaster and 1 and 2 puppet agent, how i can look different performance? Its that any idea / or complex puppet stanza to benchmark / compare this with

I have updated the 1100 clients that prior to the update used to connect to the master just fine. Now after about 30 minutes of running, puppetmasterd starts to complain "puppetmasterd[6875]: Too many connections", and from that point forward will stop compiling catalogs. Puppetmaster is configured using the Mongrel Apache configuration as described here:
