In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Puppet on Clear Linux Latest using the official Puppet repositories.
Before you begin with this tutorial, ensure that you have the following:
To install Puppet on Clear Linux, we need to enable the official Puppet repository. You can do this by executing the following command:
$ sudo swupd bundle-add package-utils
$ sudo rpm --import https://yum.puppet.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-puppet
$ sudo sh -c 'echo -e "[puppet5]\nname=Puppet 5 Repository\nbaseurl=https://yum.puppet.com/puppet5/el/7/x86_64/\ngpgcheck=1\ngpgkey=https://yum.puppet.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-puppet\nenabled=1\n" > /etc/yum.repos.d/puppet5.repo'
These commands will install the necessary package and enable the Puppet repository.
To install Puppet, we need to install the server and agent packages. You can do this by executing the following command:
$ sudo dnf install puppetserver puppet-agent
The above command will install both the Puppet server and agent packages.
Once the installation is complete, we need to start and enable the Puppet server. You can do this by executing the following commands:
$ sudo systemctl enable puppetserver
$ sudo systemctl start puppetserver
The above commands will enable and start the Puppet server.
To verify that Puppet is installed correctly, we can run the following command to ensure that both the Puppet server and agent are running:
$ sudo systemctl status puppetserver
$ sudo systemctl status puppet-agent
If Puppet is installed correctly, you should see the status of both the server and agent as "active".
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Puppet on Clear Linux Latest using the official Puppet repositories. By following these steps, you can easily set up the Puppet server and agent on your Clear Linux system.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
