Here you will find all the modules which we are currently using in the Rhizomatica infrastructure. Some of them are directly pulled from PuppetForge or github. A bunch are included as submodules, others are directly imported in the repository. To have a working repo, you should also include all the submodules:
git submodule init
git submodule update
To have a fully configured system from scratch, these are the steps:
1 - Install Ubuntu 12.04, 64-bit version. There is a preseed file included in this git repo which can make it easier and faster :)
2 - Create a new user, called rhizomatica. This is not needed if you have used the preseed file to do the install.
3 - Install openvpn, openssh-server and puppet:
sudo apt-get install openvpn openssh-server puppet
4 - Configure the VPN - normally just a matter of unpacking the config and keys in /etc/openvpn and restarting openvpn
5 - Edit /etc/puppet/puppet.conf and add the proper puppet server
6 - Run puppet for the first time:
puppet agent --test
This will generate the key and certificate
7 - Connect to the VPN/Puppet server, check the certificates:
puppet ca list
And sign the one you just generated in the step above:
puppet ca sign <hostname>
8 - On the VPN/Puppet server Personalize the hiera file which is going to describe your installation by copying over the template file to something like <hostname>.yaml in /etc/puppet/hieradata, where hostname is the name for the host you are currently configuring.
9 - Run puppet again:
puppet agent --test
10 - Profit! :D
