Hi,
I would like to see a feature to define a list of nodes in Puppet.
As far as I understand, we can currently define multiple nodes like this:
node server1, server2, server3 {
include someresource
}
This wouldn't scale very well with puppetrun, because I would have to use
something like:
sudo puppetrun --host server1 --host server2 --host server3
where the number of nodes could be 100.
Instead, I would like to have a node list like this:
nodelist servergroup1 {
server1,
server2,
server3
include resources
}
and I can puppetrun this with
puppetrun --nodelist servergroup1
A feature to group nodes together adds a layer of abstraction in node
management. It's very common to want to group similar nodes (i.e. servers
under a single load-balancer) and be able to apply the same configuration in
one shot, without having to go through each node definition and update
appropriate resources.
If there is already a way to do this, my apologies for not knowing puppet
enough. As far as I have asked around on IRC #puppet, people only pointed me to
listing multiple hosts in one line like I described here.
