Re: [Puppet Users] install vmware tools through puppet

2012-09-25 Thread Hai Tao
Wolf,

that is wonderful fact, and we can deploy vmtools based on its
underneath ESX version now!

however, "Address 0xEA550" seems to be ESX4.1U1, but ESX4U1. Can you verify?

Re: [Puppet Users] install vmware tools through puppet

2012-09-24 Thread Wolf Noble
I've just added a fact to github which on vmware hosts running linux runs 
dmidecode and matches known bios address/ esx version to realize an ESX version 
fact.

this information generated from 
http://virtwo.blogspot.com/2010/10/which-esx-version-am-i-running-on.html

in limited testing on an esx 4.1 host, and a non esx host, it seems to not 
create a fact unless it's a vmware host, and seems to properly set the version, 
and fail to vmware-unknown if I change the 4.1 match

you can find it here

https://github.com/wolfspyre/vmware_puppetfact


feel free to let me know if something is incorrect, or could be done in a more 
elegant fashion.

I believe the open-vm-tools at http://packages.vmware.com/tools are ESX
host version agnostic.

We pull the rhel 4-6 repos into RHN satellite and just use puppet ensure
the latest is installed.

If you do t use satellite you could just clone the repo and configure yum
on the clients.

Packages are available for RHEL, SuSE and deb at least.

It is a useful tool. However, the difficulty is that our ENV has
multiple versions of ESX hosts, 3.5, 4.1 and 5.0. The guest OS has no
clue what version of ESX it is running on, so how can puppet server
push a correct version of vmware tools to a client?
