Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet Learner
Overdue, Walter is right in that you will need to look to another tool, such as MCollective. Puppet is not the best at orchestrating operations across multiple servers. It can reacting to things on one machine, like an Apache servers' config file updating, but there's nothing in core Puppet that's going to have your Varnish servers react to this event. MCollective is a job scheduling frame work that can do what you're after and integrates with Puppet quite well. Other products are Func and RunDeck. -Luke On 17/04/12 00:54, Walter Heck wrote: If you are not running your agents in daemon mode, you can have a look at mcollective.

Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet Learner
Thanks guys that was really very helpful and did clear lots of concepts in my mind for puppet. Absolutely brilliant that means that with collective I can even launch the instances on EC2 aswel and can even run the required services on demand within the boxs. One thing I also like to know say puppet master connected to 20 boxs in a cluster and all the agents are connected to master and are running in daemon mode and doing well,but if i need to do some changes or update few things in an admin box itself (i.e Box with puppet master) so how do i do that? do i need to install puppet client aswel where puppet master is running to do the required job or puppet master can be use to configure itself? If yes then how. Regards, On 17 April 2012 09:07, Luke Bigum luke.bi...@lmax.com wrote: Overdue, Walter is right in that you will need to look to another tool, such as MCollective.

Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet Learner
Yes, your Puppet Master can be an Agent, it just talks to itself. Most people manage Puppet Agent and Master configuration with Puppet itself - get it to manage it's own config and restart itself when it changes. This means you only need a bunch of text files - your modules and manifests - to rebuild your entire infrastructure.
