Hello, I have been experimenting a bit with a setup that integrates Spacewalk 0.8 and Puppet 0.25.x. Basically node configuration in Puppet is fetched by the puppetmaster from Spacewalk with an external node lookup script. The configuration of a node is determined by which activation key(s) the node was registered with, and two custom info keys. The result is that a server can be kickstarted by cobbler / pxe, and with %pre and %post scripts + puppet be fully configured at the same time.
My goal is to be able to quickly install new servers of a few well defined profiles (e.g. web-test, base-test, web-prod, etc.) without any interaction after the %pre-script in kickstart (where the hostname must be supplied). With this approach I can use both the configuration management strengths of Puppet and the provisioning functionality in Spacewalk without any manual steps. I have tried to describe my setup here: http://www.reisesakte.info/spacewalk/ I appreciate if you can take a look an comment my approach. Thanks, Erling Ringen Elvsrud _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
