On the master box
root@puppet-master:/home/hattori# apt-get install puppetmaster –y
root@puppet-master:/home/hattori# service puppetmaster status
* master is running
|
start puppetmaster when booting the OS
root@puppet-master:/home/hattori# update-rc.d puppetmaster enable

Install puppet agent
On the agent box
root@puppet-agent01:/home/hattori# apt-get install puppet –y

confirm that there is the string of master’s hostname (puppet-master) in the SSL cert file.

on the master.
Okay, I was able to see the agent on the master
root@puppet-master:~# puppet cert –list

sign the agent certificate on the master.
root@puppet-master:~# puppet cert --sign puppet-agent01

[ create site manifests and modules ]
create the manifest
on the master
root@puppet-master:~# cd /etc/puppet/
root@puppet-master:/etc/puppet# mkdir -p manifests/ modules/helloworld/manifests
|
root@puppet-master:/etc/puppet# echo 'include helloworld' > manifests/site.pp
root@puppet-master:/etc/puppet# cat manifests/site.pp
include helloworld
|
create the module
root@puppet-master:/etc/puppet# vi modules/helloworld/manifests/init.pp
root@puppet-master:/etc/puppet# cat modules/helloworld/manifests/init.pp
class helloworld {
file { '/tmp/helloFromMaster':
content => "Hello from Puppet Master\n"
}
}
|
on the agent, restart puppet agent.
root@puppet-agent01:~# service puppet restart
* Restarting puppet agent
...done.
|
on the agent, check whether or not /tmp/helloFromMaster file exits.
nnn, no file exist..
root@puppet-agent01:~# ls /tmp/
root@puppet-agent01:~#

let’s run puppet as verbose mode to find the problem.
root@puppet-agent01:~# service puppet stop
* Stopping puppet agent
...done.
root@puppet-agent01:~# puppet agent --verbose --no-daemonize --onetime

Seen from the errors, something is wrong with the manifests and the modules
let’s re-create manifests by following instructions as below.
on the master
root@puppet-master:~# cat /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
node "puppet-agent01" {
file { "/root/helloworld.txt":
ensure => file,
owner => "root",
group => "root",
mode => 0644
}
}
|
on the agent, run puppet as verbose mode.
Okay, the agent created the file.
root@puppet-agent01:~# service puppet stop
root@puppet-agent01:~# puppet agent --verbose --no-daemonize --onetime
