Greetings. Just had a talk with tflink on IRC about the management of the qa network machines. Long ago when we setup those machines we were thinking we could use them as a testbed for bcfg2 to see if we wanted to start using it or if it worked ok, etc. I setup a bcfg2 server to try this with, but sadly have never found the time to even start configuring it. Machines involved: virthost-comm01.qa (real hardware) autoqa01.qa (guest) autoqa-stg01.qa (guest) lockbox-comm01.qa (guest) bastion-comm01.qa (guest) (someday we may add a sign-bridge-comm01 and sign-vault-comm01 to allow secondary archs like ppc and arm to sign packages). Options: - Try and push forward with a bcfg2 setup on lockbox-comm01.qa and evaluate it. This would be nice, but I'm really not sure anyone has the time to do it. - Just add all the above machines to our puppet repo and configure them there and call it done. This would mean they wouldn't be seperate from us and we just update and configure and monitor them like any other machine. - Try and work out some setup with ansible or the like to see if it could manage them. Again, this would be a learning and tweaking curve, so not sure we have the time. - We could setup a new puppet for them on lockbox-comm01.qa and use that to manage them. We could reuse a lot of our current puppet setup, but it would still be a fair bit of work to get it all configured. Thoughts? Brilliant ideas? kevin
