Hi Felix, Thanks again for your reply,
Please let me know if my understanding is right here, 1. I need to install puppet agent as per http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/puppetlabs_package_repositories.html#for-red-hat-enterprise-linux-and-derivativesin to my server hardware where ESX5.1 is installed ? Please let me know. If yes, do I need to remove ESX 5.1 from the server hardware and install a Centos and then do the above puppet agent installation ? Sorry if any of these questions are trivial and stupid as I am totally new to puppet and vmware world.

Setting up agent machines is simple. Just install the puppet package, yum will take care of all dependencies. Here's how to set up yum: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/puppetlabs_package_repositories.html#for-red-hat-enterprise-linux-and-derivatives Once that's up and running, follow the instructions in http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/installation.html#post-install HTH, Felix On Tuesday, 26 November 2013 23:32:34 UTC-8, Dhanarajan Ponnurangam wrote: > > > > Hi All, > > I am very new to puppet an vmware. > > I have a hardware server with ESX5.1 installed in it.
