Hi Cody,
Probably that may also solve my problem.
My requirement is I need to run a command line that takes the IP,
user, password and module to be installed on that IP. By giving that
command it should install that module on that IP.
So, in chef after doing that command (it is knife bootstrap), the new
IP will be installed with chef and registers with the server along
with installing the specified recipe. In dashboard we can see what all
the agents are associated to that server.
Also, is there any Dashboard where we can manage the clients that are
registered to the Puppet server.
Thanks,
Sateesh B.
