I've been tasked at my workplace to upgrade our puppet installation to a more modern version. Currently all the environments run a RubyGem version of puppet 0.25.4 on mostly RHEL/Centos 5.3 - 5.5 (there are, like most environments, a few laggards running RHEL4 or new machines running CentOS 6).
The plan is to upgrade these to the most stable version of Puppet, which at the time of writing is 2.7.3. I plan on building RPMs on RHEL5.3 for Puppet 2.7.3 against the Ruby version that RHEL5 shipped with which is 1.8.5 I believe. Are there are any significant gotaches. My plan was to upgrade the server first and then do a few roll outs to some QA machines and see how it goes. However there is some concern in the group that 0.25.4 agents are unable to talk to a 2.7.3 server. Are these unfounded or true? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
