Hi,
I was wondering if using cfengine to maintain configurations on a SOA appliance like Layer 7 or Datapower for instance would be feasible. Although, it is not possible to install the cfengine agents on the box by design (it is a closed design for security reasons), there are remote command line or SOAP/REST style tools that allow configuring applications installed on the appliance. So, using a server with cfengine installed on it as a front end to configure the appliance sounds like doable to me. The idea would be that the policies would issue remote configuration commands based on configuration files that would describe the internal configuration of the appliance. Has anyone tried / succeeded / failed in using cfengine in such a use case ? Any feedback welcome. Tks.
