Prepare system

For some reason, there is no way to upgrade from the puppet installed from Ubuntu repo to the puppetlabs repo.

sudo apt-get update 
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo reboot

Install puppet

Prerequisites

sudo apt-get install ntp

edit the ntp config

 sudo nano /etc/ntp.conf

and put (instead of default ubuntu ones):

  server 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org
  server 1.north-america.pool.ntp.org
  server 2.north-america.pool.ntp.org
  server 3.north-america.pool.ntp.org

restart ntp and test it:

$ sudo service ntp restart
$ ntpq -p
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset  jitter

Install puppet

From here

 sudo apt-get install puppetmaster-passenger
 sudo apt-get install puppetmaster
 sudo apt-get update
 sudo puppet resource package puppet ensure=latest

Note: Ignore the warning:

Warning: Setting templatedir is deprecated. See http://links.puppetlabs.com/env-settings-deprecations
   (at /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/settings.rb:1095:in `block in issue_deprecations')

sudo service puppetmaster restart

Edit the conf file with these options underneath master:

dns_alt_names = puppet, master.local, keg.swift.com

and these options underneath agent (add agent section if one if not there):

runinterval=30s

Check puppet version

$ puppet --version
$ sudo reboot

Read later:

Install puppetdb

 sudo puppet resource package puppetdb ensure=latest
 sudo puppet resource service puppetdb ensure=running enable=true
 sudo puppet resource package puppetdb-terminus ensure=latest

continue with official docs

Be aware that these 2 configurations show different things:

 puppet master --configprint route_file
 puppet config print route_file

next need to sign certificates of agent with master. Turn on agent for the first time and that should automatically submit a certificate to be signed on the master. on the master type

sudo puppet cert --list

this will list all the agents who sent a signature request. Then type:

sudo puppet cert --sign <NAME_OF_MACHINE_YOU_ARE_SIGNING>

Next step is to test the connection to see if it is working. On the agent type:

sudo puppet agent -t

If the result is all green, Success! Now time to configure/set up puppetboard First step is to install puppetboard through pip.
