Testing Puppet with Vagrant

Aug. 11, 2014

Puppet and Vagrant setup

This one is pretty simple and gives a lot in return, When doing big changes (and minor ones, really) I can quickly see how the changes will affect production hosts.

Generate a new host certificate on the server or locally, sign it, and place it in puppet_ssl directory.

Place your config file, and type in vagrant –provision, voila.
