Ok. I'm trying Puppet. Maybe I could help at some point if you try to
integrate it... And I'll probably have a better look to Spacewalk when
PostgreSQL will be supported.
Thanks for the answer.

Hi.
I'm a recent Cobbler user and I've seen Spacewalk has
integrated Cobbler in v0.4.
I would like to do configuration management but can't migrate
to Spacewalk (no Oracle policy...).
Then I would like know which configuration management tool is
used in Spacewalk if not internal one ? I'm looking forward
Puppet and CfEngine, but would rather stay close to Spacewalk
to easily migrate when it will support PostgreSQL.
currently it is a home-grown configuration management system that
is specific to Spacewalk.
Various thoughts and discussions have taken place about
integrating puppet or cfengine with Spacewalk but it isn't
anything anyone is currently working on.

I've shared my comments on this on Cobbler list, since you also posted
there:
https://fedorahosted.org/pipermail/cobbler/2009-January/002389.html
This probably would be a good opportunity to start discussing the future
of Spacewalk config management on-list, no?
Namely I find the idea of sharing variables that are used for kickstart
with the CMS rather interesting, as well as a macro-based templating
system (like Cheetah), but we also need to account for integration with
tools like puppet. The question is how far do you go in supporting
other CMS's, such as if someone wants to use cfengine (because they
already have it) instead, or something like bcfg2. Ultimately the
other question is how much you integrate in a CMS without becoming just
a GUI editor for a text file, as many of these are basically recipe based.
Thoughts welcome.
