Sorry, bit of a noob here at puppet -- I've been configuring puppet & modules and I was installing a module and following the instructions -- and they mention putting variables into the Console. I don't use any GUIs (nor do I want to) for puppet, so I was under the impression everything was just passed through classes, etc?
... Is "Console" another term for like the site.pp? In my Console I have created the following classes, groups/parameters: * Classes - splunk * Groups/parameters - splunk (has the class splunk associated to it) + splunk_logging_server = splunk.mydomain.lan + splunk_forwarder_port = 8002 + splunk_syslog_port = 8001 + splunk_deploy = server - forwarder (child group of splunk) + splunk_deploy = forwarder - syslog (child group of splunk) + splunk_deploy = syslog Now with this set up, I simply need to add a node to the main splunk *group* to designate what server will be handling the role of the Splunk Server and assign nodes to either the forwarder or syslog group depending on if I want to configure the forwarder for the node or configure rsyslog to report data to the defined Server. -- Bernard Zell Anshe Emet Day School Learning | Identity | Community 773.281.1858 www.bzaeds.org | www.facebook.com/bzaeds | www.twitter.com/bzaeds ------------------------------ CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This email and any attachments may contain information that is privileged or confidential.
