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

Hello All, So I finally got around to start to cut over node definitions from standard flat files to external nodes (foreman), and getting error message: "Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find node ''nodename''; cannot compile" - So basically it can''t pick up the node from the external node config. When I test the fetching of the yaml file it seems to work

Hello All, I''m trying to start using external nodes under foreman, and I''m running into some issues. I have the entries in puppet.conf: [main] external_nodes = /etc/puppet/external_node.rb node_terminus = exec The enternal_node.rb script is the one that came with foreman: #!/usr/bin/ruby # a simple script which fetches external nodes from Foreman # you

Hi, I have a Puppet Enterprise (2.0) puppetmaster running with Foreman, and having trouble getting it working as an External Node Classifier. In short, if I manually add a test client into site.pp, it will retrieve the proper catalog / classes, but I would like to avoid having to do that. I''m also using environments (production/testing/ development) as well, but think I have most of

Hello All, I''m happy to announce the next stable release of Foreman, main new features include: - Integration of Puppet Reports, once enabled you would see a real time overview of all of yours hosts status. - Improved support for multiple Puppet Masters (e.g. import facts and reports from remote serves over http) - Simplified migration from existing external nodes setup,

Hello, I try config puppet with foreman frontend. Into puppetmasterd I create modules "test" and create init.pp: # Create "/tmp/testfile" if it doesn''t exist. class test_class { file { "/tmp/testfile": ensure => present, mode => 644, owner => root, group => root } } Configure nodes in site.pp and import

I saw this feature became available in 2.7.0rc1 and wanted to try it out. I entered ''allow_duplicate_certs = true'' on both my master and agent systems in the puppet.conf (not sure if its need in both, saw it in genconf for puppetd and puppetmasterd though ...). I also have autosign.conf configured to allow autosigning for our domain (*.domain.com). I had my agent register with

I am trying to create a hostgroup using the Foreman API (foreman-0.4-0.1rc1.noarch): Using perl v.5.14.2, REST::Client et. al., ending up with sending: POST /hostgroups {"name":"api-created-

I''m trying to use environments and seem to be failing. Right now I have 4 defined environments: production, cat, development, beta They are defined as follows on my puppetmaster: cat /etc/puppet/puppet.conf [main] pluginsync = true vardir = /var/lib/puppet manifest = /etc/puppet/environments/production/site.pp modulepath = /etc/puppet/environments/production/modules [master] reports =

I''m having some issues applying a default set of modules to all of my nodes managed by Foreman. I have around 20 nodes split among 4 environments. I have a node {default...} stanza in site.pp, but due to the way puppet handles ENCs, nothing from this is applied to my nodes. I have looked at host groups in Foreman, but they don''t seem to do what I want, since they are applied

I updated some of my gems, and I think it may be the reason I am getting the following error when the agents try to retrieve a catalog. err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: The single-table inheritance mechanism failed to locate the subclass: ''Host::Managed''. This error is raised because the column ''type'' is reserved for

Hello, I have enabled summary emails from foreman and set up a cron job which sends me periodic summary emails. However, the mail''s content is sort of plain text. Now this is more like a feature request rather than a problem, I am wondering if we could use some kind of HTML template and pass the values through this HTML template and then mail the output as a summary email to the

Hi, i just installed foreman from the git repository and the dropdown menu does not work.

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:
