For myself, I can see that Hiera is really the way to go, (with a good front end), however for where I am now on the puppet rollout, asking other admins to create even simple json/yaml files for each node would not get anywhere.
So, I've got a very simple node terminus ENC script that parses flat text files to groups & "roles" and anything more complex goes either goes into hiera, or into a node specific manifest class file. I quite liked the puppet dashboard as an ENC, but there was no way to audit who changed what when, which would be unacceptable in our environment. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
