Yes, but a slight customization to cloud provisioner is necessary. The `puppet node install` command accepts an IP address and will install Puppet or Puppet Enterprise onto the system with that IP address. Cloud Provisioner uses SSH to log into the remote system and install Puppet. We stop there though. None of the installation scripts [1] are able to download a module and run Puppet using that module. You could take the puppet-community script [2] and copy it to a new name in the same directory. If you add the commands required to install the puppet module and run puppet against a manifest inside the module then this will accomplish your goal. For example: cat puppet-community-localcopy.erb #!/bin/bash ... provision_puppet # Install the Puppet Module tool gem install puppet-module # Install a module from the Forge cd /etc/puppetlabs/modules puppet-module install puppetlabs-stdlib puppet-module install puppetlabs-ntp # Do a puppet configuration run with the NTP class included in the configuration catalog puppet apply -v -e 'include ntp' With this custom script template you can install on the targ Hope this helps [1] https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-cloud-provisioner/tree/master/lib/puppet/cloudpack/scripts [2] https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-cloud-provisioner/blob/master/lib/puppet/cloudpack/scripts/puppet-community.erb -- Jeff McCune -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
