I’ve been working for a nice project the last month. Implementing puppet Enterprise and puppet with the foreman. Why would someone want to use puppet enterprise\u00a0 and puppet with foreman? Well that’s a good question \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Foreman is very versatile with its smart proxy functionality.\u00a0 This is very important if you have a complex network environment. Like puppet, foreman is written in ruby and can\u00a0 easily be integrated in the puppet enterprise framework. Foreman also has nice features like locations and organization as well as\u00a0 provisioning to bare metal,\u00a0 RHEV, Libvirt, Vmware, Amazon Cloud etc. etc. and you can integrate it into katello and add mcollective, which is very nice too.\u00a0 This means you could basically have an all in one solution, config and repo management and provisioning. Some of you guys would say oh but puppet Enterprise has a very nice LIve Management Console and can do provisioning to clouds too!\u00a0 I have to say your right, but not being able to lock the mcollective part down via web interface is a no go in a large environment.<\/p>\n
Now where is the benefit of running (Enterprise\/Open source) solution in parallel?<\/p>\n
As I could not find any documentation on how to integrate foreman with puppet enterprise and puppet open source in parallel I decided to write 2 documents:<\/p>\n
