Hi All, Trying to wrap my head around this...
I want to have a bank of puppet servers that will be be fronted by a load balancer(anything such as apache proxy, or passenger..etc), these server banks will be the puppet masters for our internal dev/stg/prod environments/servers, as well as our EC2 cloud instances so i will have 4 total separate environments... As my first task/project - I am trying to puppetize our Nagios server environments. I've build custom .rpm's to handle the installation/setup as much as possible and then have puppet handle the remaining config/setups that the rpm could not do(probably could, but would be to much work). the core question i have here is that our nagios server in dev has different config files then our nagios server in prod ( ie. apache conf.d, etc..) How can i have puppet recognize the different environments and deploy designated config bases on the identified environment. possibly by domain, since our structure is as follows -- even if I went this route - i still am at the roadblock of how do I setup puppet to do this.... >From what i gather, all the nagios servers across all the domain would get the nagios rpms i've built using puppet, and then i would have all the custom config file sitting on the puppet masters repo(puppet master local file system). poller1.qprvt.tech.com would get abc configs which are designated as dev config files for nagios poller1.sprvt.tech.com would get xyz configs which are designated as staging config files for nagios etc... etc... dev = qprvt.tech.com stg = sprvt,tech.com prod = prvt.tech.com ec2 = ec2.tech.com sorry for the long winded messages.... just trying to convey my thoughts... Thanks for all the help guy/gals -- i'm very excited about puppet -- but its proving elusive to nail down(at least for me at the moment). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
