Puppet Manifests for SL 5.3
===========================
Introduction
------------
As we are planning to upgrade from SL 5.1 to SL 5.3, we decided to
reorganize and reimplement all the client configuration manifests.
Procedure
---------
**Note**: Here we are still in the development state, thus filenames
and everything probably will be changed for the productive setup.
Puppet SVN
~~~~~~~~~~
To manage the changes to manifests and client configuration files we
use `subversion (svn)` as a revision control::
# ENV=CnodeSL5
# mkdir /var/puppet/environments/$ENV
# cd /var/puppet/environments/$ENV
Check out all manifests::
# svn co svn+ssh://svn.psi.ch/repos/linux/kickstart/trunk/puppet/manifests
Check out modules individually::
# mkdir /var/puppet/environments/$ENV/modules
# cd /var/puppet/environments/$ENV/modules
# svn co svn+ssh://svn.psi.ch/repos/linux/kickstart/trunk/puppet/Modules/facts
# svn co svn+ssh://svn.psi.ch/repos/linux/kickstart/trunk/puppet/Modules/cnode
# svn co svn+ssh://svn.psi.ch/repos/linux/kickstart/trunk/puppet/Modules/psibasic
# svn co svn+ssh://svn.psi.ch/repos/linux/kickstart/trunk/puppet/Modules/ssh
# svn co svn+ssh://svn.psi.ch/repos/linux/kickstart/trunk/puppet/Modules/ntp
# svn co svn+ssh://svn.psi.ch/repos/linux/kickstart/trunk/puppet/Modules/scratch
On the Puppet Server Side
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Restart the puppet server. For testing use some increased verbosity
(-v), debug mode (-d) and log to a file (-l). Set these options in
`/etc/init.d/puppetmaster` using variable `PUPPETMASTER_OPTS`::
# vi /etc/init.d/puppetmaster
...
PUPPETMASTER_OPTS="-v -d -l /var/log/puppet/puppetmaster.log"
...
# /etc/init.d/puppetmaster restart
On the Puppet Client Side
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To specify which environment the Puppet client uses you can specify a
value for the environment configuration variable in the client's
`puppet.conf` file. Here the environment `developmentSL53` is set.
Additionally the name of the puppet server `psi-puppet1.psi.ch` is
assigned::
# vi /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
[main]
vardir = /var/puppet
logdir = /var/log/puppet
rundir = /var/run/puppet
ssldir = $vardir/ssl
environment = developmentSL53
[puppetd]
classfile = $vardir/classes.txt
localconfig = $vardir/localconfig
factsync = true
server = psi-puppet1.psi.ch
In the Kickstart
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the SL 5.3 Installation Tree
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Create the base directories, its subdirectories and some first test
file for the `Basic` class as declared above in the manifest
`basic.pp` on the server::
# cd /afs/psi.ch/software/linux/dist/scientific/53/
# mkdir -p puppet/files/Basic/etc
# touch puppet/files/Basic/etc/puppet-test-file
