Lets take the example, I am having a jboss-4.2.3 installers as a .tar file. In general to install jboss, i ll 1. untar the jboss-4.2.3 into a prefefined folder (opt/server/jbossas/) into multiple servers 2. untar the openjdk into a preferined path (/opt/software/java)set the path in the bash.profile 3. Create server profile in the place where jboss is installed 4. Start the server.
Lets say that I have to do this in 16 nodes (servers). Now, I should store the jboss and openjdk installers at a central location and it should be transferred to the nodes before the 1st step can begin. I wrote the manifest to perform the requirements form 1 to 4. But not sure how can I automate the transfer of the installers from a central repo. I am not worried about the type of central repo. It can be a ftp or puppet or anything else. Please help me. I was going through filebucket. Will this help or should i write a manifest to get this file from a ftp server? How to create a file repo which can be referred in puppet manifests? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
