In the last article, we learned how to import modules from the puppet forge. We created a very simple, but disorganized, site manifest. We need to create some organization, which will give us the ability to apply different settings to different nodes. Here’s the manifest we ended up with:
class { '::ntp':
servers => [ '0.pool.ntp.org', '2.centos.pool.ntp.org', '1.rhel.pool.ntp.org'],
}
user { 'dave':
ensure => present,
uid => '507',
gid => '507',
shell => '/bin/bash',
home => '/home/dave',
managehome => true,
}
group { 'dave':
ensure => 'present',
gid => '507',
}
include ::ssh
::ssh::server::configline { 'PermitRootLogin': value => 'yes' }
The manifest includes two modules from the puppet forge and two resources managed by puppet, one user and one group. These resources, however, are going to applied to every agent that connects. As we grow the manifests, we’re going to meet some resources that are only needed on certain agents – web servers, web apps, etc. Let’s take what we have and organize it better.
