Hello All,
I have written a manifest which will upgrade the JAVA to a recent
version (ex: JDK 6u33 to JDK7) using exec type. The installation is
nothing but untarring the tar.gz file into a predefined folder and
setting the JAVA_HOME and PATH variables in the user's bash_profile file.
1. Now I have to upgrade around 30 servers. Is there anyway that I can
apply these manifests into the nodes from puppet master itself?
Many of the examples that I found says that we have to login to the
node and execute the command puppet agent update command. But doing
this in all the managed nodes is tedious.
Is there an easy way to accomplish this?
You could set up the agent to poll the master periodically.
2. The bash_profile contains other text in them. How can we append
these new variables (JAVA_HOME) into the existing file without
changing the other parts of the file?
What I would look at is creating a .java_settings file that sets your
JAVA_* and have that sourced from the .profile. That way you could have
puppet manage that file in its entirety and not the user's .profile.
