On March 12, in a security notice Canonical published details about Puppet vulnerabilities for its Ubuntu 12.10, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 11.10 operating systems.According to Canonical, several security issues were fixed in Puppet. For example, it was discovered that Puppet agents incorrectly handled certain kick connections in a non-default configuration.
Cannot use puppet on mac osx 10.8, i can find it in /usr/bin/lib but display that when i launch it :
/usr/bin/puppet:3:in `require': no such file to load -- puppet/util/command_line (LoadError)
from /usr/bin/puppet:3
Any idea ?
Edit :
I want to use puppet in Vagrant VM to do provisioning is it the good way ?
Puppet – Open source data centre automation and configuration management framework
ERB – Powerful templating system for Ruby
Puppet Recipes – Recipes for configuring Puppet
Puppet Dashboard – Web interface and reporting tool for Puppet
I'm running puppet 2.7.9 on a Debian Squeeze system.
Puppet Labs, provider of open source systems management solutions, announced the release of Puppet Enterprise, the first commercially supported version of Puppet.
I maintain two datacenters, and as more of our important infrastructure starts to get controlled via puppet, it is important the the puppet master work at the second site should our primary site fail.
Even better would be to have a sort of active / active setup so the servers at the second site are not polling over the WAN.
Are there any standard methods of multi-site puppet high availability?
I am learning puppet and using this tool install puppet clients on nodes.
puppet node install --login=root --keyfile=~/.ssh/id_rsa --install-script puppet-enterprise --installer-payload ~/puppet/puppet-enterprise-2.7.0-ubuntu-12.04-amd64.tar.gz --installer-answers ~/puppet/installer.answers --puppetagent-certname puppet.node01.example.com 192.168.1.100
Everything seems to work ok.
I'm new to puppet and vagrant, but I'm developing my own Puppet manifests intended to set up a vagrant box. That is, the puppet manifest is in my Vagrant directory on the host machine, and vagrant is invoking puppet -- there is no puppet server.
The thing is, my workflow is:
while(not working as desired) {
vagrant destroy
amend manifest
vagrant up
}
...
I have 40 Ubuntu 12.04 servers. These servers are managed with puppet.
Sometimes I have problem with puppet agent.
puppet agent spawn child process (sh) and this process fails. Sh is zombie process. Puppet doesn't work, I must restart puppet agent to make it works.
I use puppet to manage files, packages and services. Problematic agent didn't make any change before fails, server is up to date.
