Puppet : Install2015/07/22

 
Install and setup the Configuration management tool "Puppet".
It's possible to use it on a server with standalone though, but this example setup it with Puppet server and Puppet client environment.
It's necessarry to setup DNS or hosts settings to resolve names or IP address and also NTP settings first.
[1] Install puppet-server on Puppet Server Host.
[root@dlp ~]#
yum -y install https://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-el-7.noarch.rpm
[root@dlp ~]#
sed -i -e "s/enabled=1/enabled=0/g" /etc/yum.repos.d/puppetlabs.repo

[root@dlp ~]#
yum --enablerepo=puppetlabs-products,puppetlabs-deps -y install puppet-server
[root@dlp ~]#
vi /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
[main]
# add follows into [main] section : Puppet server's DNS name

    dns_alt_names = dlp.srv.world,dlp
[root@dlp ~]#
puppet master --verbose --no-daemonize

# push Ctrl + C to quit
[root@dlp ~]#
systemctl start puppetmaster

[root@dlp ~]#
systemctl enable puppetmaster

[2] Install puppet on Puppet Client Host.
[root@node01 ~]#
yum -y install https://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-el-7.noarch.rpm
[root@node01 ~]#
sed -i -e "s/enabled=1/enabled=0/g" /etc/yum.repos.d/puppetlabs.repo

[root@node01 ~]#
yum --enablerepo=puppetlabs-products,puppetlabs-deps -y install puppet
[root@node01 ~]#
vi /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
[agent]
# add follows into [agent] section : Puppet server's hostname or IP address

    server = dlp.srv.world
[root@node01 ~]#
puppet agent --test --ca_server=dlp.srv.world

[root@node01 ~]#
systemctl start puppet

[root@node01 ~]#
systemctl enable puppet

[3] Enable certificate from Puppet Client on Puppet Server.
# show certificate requests

[root@dlp ~]#
puppet cert list

  "node01.srv.world" (SHA256) xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
# sign

[root@dlp ~]#
puppet cert --allow-dns-alt-names sign node01.srv.world

Notice: Signed certificate request for node01.srv.world
Notice: Removing file Puppet::SSL::CertificateRequest node01.srv.world at 
    '/var/lib/puppet/ssl/ca/requests/node01.srv.world.pem'
[4] Make sure Puppet Server/Client works normally to create a test manifest.
Puppet clients refer to manifests on Puppet server for every 30 minutes by default, so wait for a moment to make sure it or if you'd like to make sure at once, restart Puppet Client daemon(puppetd).
[root@dlp ~]#
vi /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
# for example, create a "testgroup" like follows

group { 'testgroup':
    ensure => present,
    gid    => 2000,
}

# restart puppetd if you make sure it at once

[root@node01 ~]#
systemctl restart puppet
[root@node01 ~]#
grep testgroup /etc/group

testgroup:x:2000:
[5] It's possible to apply manifest to local environment manually like follows.
[root@dlp ~]#
puppet apply /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
