Issue #9471 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.

Assignee changed from Nigel Kersten to Jason McKerr

This feels like QA/Testing need to do a cost/benefit analysis of:

  * Build AMIs for everything we support, and deal with the guaranteed drift 
from "vanilla" installs as well as the implications that has for testing 
coverage
  * Use Cloud Provisioner/manifests to take vanilla AMIs and set them up for 
testing.

There are quite a few pros and cons here, but given we're not talking about 
producing these as product for consumers, I don't think it's my decision

/me passes buck.

Feature #9471: Need to create AMIs for testing
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/9471

Author: Dan Bode
Status: Needs Decision
Priority: High

Target version: 
Patch: None

Branch: 


Before we can really start testing in the cloud, we should start building AMIs 
that can be used by the test harness.

I just tried to use the base centos ami that is hard coded into the pe-builder 
and in its current state it will not work with the test harness.

We need to ensure that the AMIS that we build have the following installed:

* ntp should be installed
* tar should be installed
* ssh should be installed and sshd should be enabled

We should also build out (or identify existing) AMIs that can be used to test 
on all of the supported platforms, this includes:

* SLES 11
* Solaris (SPARC and Intel)
* RHEL 4,5,6
* CentOS 4,5,6
* Debian 5
* Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
