I am using puppet to configure EC2 instances at Amazon. After each restart, the hostname can change and I don't always have a public DNS name.
I'd like to have the client specify their own node names. Actually, what I really want is for clients to specify a node "type". In other words, I don't care what the machine or domain name is... I just want to know the purpose of the node. Is a "compute" node or a "database" node, each of which could be on many machines. Is there a clean way to do this with puppet? I see the --fqdn option to puppetd. Will there be problems if multiple machines use the same value with this option? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
