Hey, all; I've come to the point where i need to install puppetdb in my opensource puppet server 4.5 implementation.
Although the use of exported resources is on the scope, the two immediate use cases that I'm looking for are: - puppet node status - Use of a dashboard yet TBD I looked through the docs at https://docs.puppet.com/puppetdb/4.1/ and have some general questions: - Are there any hidden issues when installing puppetdb for use with puppet server? The doc mentions puppet master repeatedly. I'm not seeing anything in any of the docs that look like they wouldn't run on puppet server 4.5. Even the "puppet master --configprint route_file" works but having direct feedback from someone who's done it would be nice. - When should I consider installing puppetdb on a separate node? I have 8 very basic modules managing roughly 1200 linux systems. The puppet server is a physical HP dl360 gen8 w/2x16 core cpus and 32 gigs of ram. The number of modules will increase as we migrate more fully into the puppet management paradigm and we will probably end up with nigh on 2000 nodes by year's end. We may also have other teams using open source puppet if the long-delayed puppet enterprise is delayed yet again; however, for the moment, the implementation is very low impact. - If I do install puppetdb on the puppet server, how hard is it to move if I later decide to split them up? I think that covers the questions. Any hints/tips/suggestions on avoiding hurdles would be greatly appreciated as well.
