Folks: Just getting started with puppet in a large legacy environment that has never had meaningful systems automation. After a couple of weeks in the lab, we''re extremely happy with the spectacularly quick progress we''ve been able to make, and the obvious promise that puppet holds. However (and there''s always a however): we''ve got a pretty good sized

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?

Hi, we see a growing need for a better Configuration management for our servers. Are there any known good resources for a comparison of e.g. Puppet, Chef, Ansible etc? What would you suggest and why? :) Thanks and Regards . G?tz

Hi All, I have a working installation of a Puppet Master (CA) with Puppet agents, this using The Foreman. I really see the usage of Puppet this way but because The Foreman supports pushing your classes/templates to you nodes (agents) and uses the depricated Run/Kick for it I''m looking into Mcollective. Mcollective is supported by The Foreman since 1.2, the version I''m

Hi, I am writing scripts for deployment of our software and I am also using MCollective on linux. I hope to use MCollective in order to reduce the requirement of opening a putty session to each VM and running the puppet agent manually the first time (when its registers/ creates keys etc). The problem I see with this is that I need to log in to each machine and install/configure mcollective

Hello, Is Puppet a good choice to deploy JAVA applications (Tomcat) where there exists a cross-system dependency (i.e. the database should be deployed before the web app)?

I had installed puppet master and client on two different machines. machine A has puppet master and machine B has client. both are centos6 64 bit machines. Machine B (client) is successfully connected to master (machine A). My aim is to install New Relic agent (server monitorinig tool) on different clients.

http://saltstack.org/ http://puppetlabs.com/mcollective/ I found this link that talks about Func, Rundeck, Salt and mcollective, but it doesn''t really compare and contrast. http://www.coloandcloud.com/editorial/func-mcollective-salt-and-rundeck/(From a 10,000 overview Saltstack and mcollective look very similar. IE: both integrate with facter/puppet, have queuing mechanisms, allow remote

What im looking for is a method or really a mcollective plugin to ''aptitude safe-upgrade'' on my test VMs. Would anyone have a solution or method on how I can go about this. The only

Hi, I deployed MCollective to our Puppet clients. approx. ~ 200. Our platform requires the most secure setup possible, so PSK as securityprovider is not an option. Therefor I changed the security provider to aes_security reusing puppets certificates in the server.cfg as found in the docs (1) Our goal is to use mcollective to offload event-driven actions to agents running on designated nodes from

Hi List, I would like to discuss with whoever is interested one topic that I suppose has general interest. I want to implement some kind of automatic testing on the status of a node after a Puppet Run. These tests involve trivial and less trivial things things like: - A local service is running - A local port is open - A remote server on a remote port is reachable by the node - An URL replies

HI, i''m currently trying to develop a task-driven rails-based frontend for some tasks that puppet/mcollective is doing in the background ( basically some user-management and some asset queries...). But i''m currently stuck at finding some puppet/mcollective API classes for ruby. (you''ll only find results for using ruby within puppet, which is of course more obvious).
