I have almost no experience with this myself (other than tinkering with some VM's at home), but it sounds like a config management system would be worthwhile, considering the number of machines. Puppet or Chef are the most popular, but Salt is rapidly becoming popular. From what I've read, Salt is easier for sending out actual commands to multiple boxes. I've only tried Puppet, and it has a bit of a learning curve, but it's very good at keep machines in a consistent state.
I'm sure real sysadmins will chime in soon enough proper guidance :) Asa On Thu, Feb 7, 2013 at 1:23 PM, joe golden <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi All. > > I'm setting up a system that aims to have 100 roughly mirrored debian > boxes with the same general directory and file structures. > > What is the best tool to accomplish command line operations > simultaneously on all machines?
