Would it be hard and worthwhile to write a 'migration assessment'
script that can be run on a labs instance and that would give you
warnings if you have data in your home folder, puppet does not run
properly, etc. Owners of a labs instance could then be notified by
email that their instance is probably not ready for migration. If this
would make sense, what kind of checks should such a script make?
I've been thinking about this off and on... so far I don't have a lot of
good ideas about what the 'etc.' would consist of. Checking an instance
for 'important' data that's not in shared storage is non-trivial, so I'm
left thinking that the main question here is one of whether or not
puppet is running.
I've been tinkering with centralized puppet checks over the last few
days... I may be able to generate a report that collates a list of
instances with broken puppet. I'd welcome your help with this -- just
ping me on IRC or off list.
