Just a pointer here to a bunch of really good OpenStack Puppet modules: https://github.com/stackforge/puppet-openstack https://github.com/hastexo/kickstack There's some gaps, such as HA for controller components, monitoring, etc - but the structure and ease of use is excellent. Particularly, for your use case, take a look at Florian's Kickstack module - I did see a 10 min video where he goes through the use of it, but I can't find the link to hand now... What I like about the Kickstack module is the way roles and profiles have been arranged to make application of intended config fast and easy. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
