Hi,
I use puppet to manage servers in a mutualized hosting context and I get
some trouble concerning the node definitions.
For example on dns nodes I have to declare many `bind::zone` resources like
this:
bind::zone { ['website1.com']:
expire => 604800,
minimum => 3600,
ttl => 38400,
…
records => [
'www IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx'
…
]
}
bind::zone { ['website2.com']:
expire => 604800,
minimum => 3600,
ttl => 38400,
…
records => [
'www IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx'
…
]
}
… and hundred others like this.
Finally, the file containing node definition became very big and difficult
to maintain.
I have the same issue for a webserver with apache::vhost resources for
example.
For the moment I use a workaround like this:
import vhosts/*.pp
And in each files I put a condition to make a restriction for a particular
nodes like this:
if $::fqdn =~ /^web(\d*)\.example\.net$/ {
apache::vhost { 'website2':
…
}
}
I suppose that many puppet users use puppet to manage nodes in mutualized
hosting context and I would ask if someone have a better solution for this
issue?
Regards,
Thomas
