Description of problem: Using edit-node install ovirt-node-plugin-puppet into rhev-h 6.5, check that currently rhev-h can support configure puppet form TUI, but it doesn't support for Automated installation. So it would be better if RHEV-H support to configure puppet for Automated Installation Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhev-hypervisor6-6.5-20130222.0.auto1744.el6 ovirt-node-3.0.0-999.0.20130719134242gitb6ab8be.el6.noarch How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: Actual results: RHEV-H only support to configure puppet form TUI. Expected results: It would be better if RHEV-H support to configure puppet for Automated Installation. Additional info:
auto-install should work for puppet. Ryan, can you provide details?
This should work, with available parameters of: puppet_enabled puppet_server puppet_certname

Created attachment 837153 [details] attached Screenshot for puppet.png Test version: ovirt-node-3.0.1-9.el6_5.noarch.rpm rhevh-6.5-20131213.0.0.iso ovirt-node-plugin-puppet-3.0.1-9.el6_5.noarch.rpm Test as follow: Using edit-node install ovirt-node-plugin-puppet into rhevh-6.5-20131213.0.0.iso and auto install with this edited iso: BOOTIF=eth0 storage_init=/dev/sda puppet_enabled=1 puppet_server=dhcp-10-214.nay.redhat.com puppet_certname=dhcp-10-106.nay.redhat.com firstboot After auto install success, enter into puppet page.Check that configuration info in TUI page(Seen puppet.png). But this configuration info was missed in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf [root@agent2 admin]# cat /etc/puppet/puppet.conf |more [main] # server = "" # certname = "" # The Puppet log directory. # The default value is '$vardir/log'. logdir = /var/log/puppet ... so this bug wasn't fixed in rhevh-6.5-20131213.0.0.iso,need re-assigned this bug again.
Still failed in the follow version: rhevh-6.5-20131220.0 ovirt-node-3.0.1-13.el6_5.noarch so need to re-assigned it again
considering the differences of ovirt-node from plan fedora/rhel - i'd expect some puppet recipes won't work. what's the use case for puppet with ovirt-node in general, and for this specific case?
I am not the original requester but I know getting puppet support for ovirt-node/rhevh is very important to us and I believe a number of Operations groups. The ability for us to automatically configure parts of the sytem (even just passwords) is very ideal. Noone likes having to go onto 20+ hypervisors and use the ncurses menu to reconfigure systems/change passwords everytime a password rotation is needed. Us sysadmins love automation :) Ideally RHEV itself would provide a general scripting/automation platform, but being able to work into our existing workflow using puppet would be great. Even being able to use puppet to fire off "build finish" messages to foreman and eventually satellite 6 will be something useful, as people will expect to be able to do full automated pxe installs of rhevh through those tools. Hope this helps, Regards, Graeme

Since it has supported to configure puppet from the TUI.This case just want allow support configure puppet from auto install via "puppet_server=xxx" and "puppet_certname=xxx" parameters
Thanks for your input, Graeme. And that - automation and fitting into a deployment - is the reason why we started this. Itamar, the idea is to provide some "high-level" configuration methods . basically exposing RHEV-H's TUI pages via puppet classes. There are actually dedicated puppet classes for RHEV-H/Node which will leverage our own logic (not the stock classes) to configure a host.
yes, just need to make it clear "normal" puppet classes aren't going to work since rhev-h is different than RHEL (lack of some rpm/files, need to persist changes, etc.)
Closing old RFEs. Currently no intention to support puppet as there are other ways to handle RHEV-H automation.
