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

I have a test setup like this: host ======= *puppet-idc*: Ubuntu 12.04 running ActiveMQ, Mcollective, puppet agent and server *puppet-node1*: Ubuntu 12.04 running MCollective and puppet agent *puppet-node2*: Ubuntu 12.04 running MCollective and puppet agent *puppet-node3*: CentOS 6.3 running MCollective and puppet agent I installed the *mcollective-plugins-puppetd plugin* on all *3 Ubuntu

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 have a puppet server and various puppet agents. I want to do mcollective stuff. So please anyone tell me what should i install on puppet server and agent to run mcollective? Is there any need to install ActiveMQ also and where should i install it? Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

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.

We are using Enterprise Ruby - I want to dig into Mcollective; however, there is no installation script in the *.tgz. Also, the rpms have various requirements from the stock distribution (RHEL5 in my case) that are already present under our Enterprise Ruby installation. Is there some clever way to weave this together. How to install the Mcollective without the typical setup.rb scripting.

I''ve been thinking a lot about running mcollective on my production servers recently, especially about its nice integration with puppet (using facts and so on). However I''ve got some concern about its scalability - how publish/subscribe middleware scales in terms of speed and flooding the network. I run about 2000 servers. Has anyone got any experience running mcollective on

If I want to run Puppet agent only on two nodes out of ten, how can I specify this with the Host Filters?
