Hi All,

I have a working installation of a Puppet Master (CA) with Puppet agents, 
this using The Foreman. I really see the usage of Puppet this way but 
because The Foreman supports pushing your classes/templates to you nodes 
(agents) and uses the depricated Run/Kick for it I'm looking into 
Mcollective.

Mcollective is supported by The Foreman since 1.2, the version I'm running 
at the moment.

The integration of Mcollective is very confusing to me because of the 
common/agent/client packages you have.

At the moment I have installed ActiveMQ on the Puppet Master, Stomp is 
installed using gem and also the Mcollective Common package and the client 
is installed on this machine. On my node that I want to "Puppetize" I have 
puppet installed and the Mcollective Common package as well as the agent.

I'm not sure if this are the right packages per server because I miss the 
mco command on my host that I want to Puppetize. I my previous test I had 
this command and was able to "mco inventory puppet-master-hostname" and got 
back a reply.

Is there any good howto or advice here what belongs on which server ? And 
is Mcollective very complex to setup or am I thinking too difficult ?

I lost track when I was reading the wiki for plugins like Puppet for 
Mcollective here: 
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/mcollective-plugins/wiki

After a long search I finally found out that you needs to install 
mcollective-PluginName-client/common/agent like mcollective-puppet-client 
instead of mcollective-package-client.

I hope I'm not asking the n00b-questions here, but with Mcollective it 
seems more complex than it was and I hope it makes life easier.

Help and Suggestions how to configure a decent (test)setup are very welcome.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Matt
