Puppet Create Symlinks Kodekloud

 

 

Question: There are directory structures in the Stratos Datacenter that need to be changed, including directories that need to be linked to the default Apache document root. We need to accomplish this task using only Puppet as per the instructions given below:

Create a puppet programming file official.pp under /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/manifests directory on puppet master node i.e on Jump Server. Within that define a class symlink and perform below mentioned tasks:

    Create a symbolic link through puppet programming code. The source path should be /opt/data and destination path should be /var/www/html on all Puppet agents i.e on all App Servers.

    Create a blank file media.txt under /opt/data directory on all puppet agent nodes i.e on all App Servers.

Note: Please perform this task using official.pp only, do not create any separate inventory file.

 

Solution: 

In jump_server go to mentioned folder


cd /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/manifests

create the file and add configuration

vi official.pp

class symlink {

  # First create a symlink to /var/www/html

  file { '/opt/data':

    ensure => 'link',

    target => '/var/www/html',

  }

   # Now create media.txt under /opt/dba

  file { '/opt/data/media.txt':

    ensure => 'present',

  }

}

node 'stapp01.stratos.xfusioncorp.com', 'stapp02.stratos.xfusioncorp.com', 'stapp03.stratos.xfusioncorp.com' {

  include symlink

}

 

Validate the configuration

puppet parser validate official.pp

Now go to app server 1, appserver 2, and appserver 3

Login as root 

sudo su

Type this command to pull configuration

pipeline agent -tv

Check /var/www/html and /opt/data

ll /var/www/html

ll /opt/data
