Hi guys - i am fairly new to puppet and i am trying to figure out ways to
implement it in my organization to make good use of it. One thing we
thought would be useful to better our deployment process, is to add a
mechanism that would have a vanilla server getting installed on a VM, boot
up, check into puppet and figure out these three questions:
1) Where am I?
- in what Datacenter/Availability zone am I? Based on that, what syslog
servers do i have to use, NTP servers, etc..
2) Who am I?
- what server am i? What files do i need for basic functions?
3) What am I supposed to do?
- based on what server I am, what am i supposed to do? do i have to run
Tomcat? Apache? And if yes, where are my configuration files?
In short, find a holistic way for a system to come up to speed by itself. I
already thought of using meaningful hostnames for the roles of the servers
but that does not work well in the cloud...
Thoughts?
Thanks!
Alex
