Hi people,
as I'm buying more and more LET boxes I think it's time to look for a configuration management tool to manage all boxes at once.
I'm curious to hear which tool(s) you're using.
I had a look at the following ones:
Rex
- Con: Authentication management is a bit messy (login as non-root user with ssh-keys, then ask for root-pw for sudo-actions)
Fabric
- Con: Not OS/system independent: You'll have to switch between apt and yum by yourself.
Puppet / Chef
- Haven't tested it yet
What I'm looking for:
- Easy API/interface to write simple tasks
- Easy to maintain/extend
- Highly configurable authentication process
- Abstraction from OSes (e.g. install_package("vnstat") should install it on centos/debian/freeBSD or whatever)
I found a neat list of configuration management tools on wikipedia: http://ift.tt/1satIRe
Anything you can recommend?
The best,
gehaxelt
