netmanagers/nut — version 1.1.0 Oct 27th 2013

Puppet module: nut

This is a Puppet module for nut based on the second generation layout ("NextGen") of Example42 Puppet Modules.

Made by Sebastian Quaino / Netmanagers

Official site: http://www.netmanagers.com.ar

Official git repository: http://github.com/netmanagers/puppet-nut

Released under the terms of Apache 2 License.

This module depends on R.I.Pienaar's concat module (https://github.com/ripienaar/puppet-concat).

This module requires functions provided by the Example42 Puppi module (you need it even if you don't use and install Puppi)

For detailed info about the logic and usage patterns of Example42 modules check the DOCS directory on Example42 main modules set.

USAGE - Basic management

  • All parameters can be set using Hiera. See the manifests to see what can be set.

  • Install nut with default settings. By default, we just install nut client.

      class { 'nut': }
    
  • Install nut server (and client), with a local UPS. As we have many options and they handle so many different parts, we assume nothing (there's room for improvement, though):

      class { 'nut':
        install_mode            => 'server',
        server_ups_name         => 'localUPS',
        server_ups_driver       => 'some_driver',
        server_ups_port         => 'auto',
        server_ups_description  => 'My UPS',
        server_user_name        => 'myuser',
        server_user_password    => 'secret',
        server_user_actions     => 'SET FSD',
        server_user_instcmds    => 'ALL',
        server_user_upsmon_mode => 'master',
        client_name             => 'localUPS',
        client_server_host      => 'localhost',
        client_user             => 'myuser',
        client_password         => 'secret',
        client_ups_mode         => 'master',
      }
    
  • Install a specific version of nut package

      class { 'nut':
        version => '1.0.1',
      }
    
  • There are many defines that let you customize your config:

    • upsconcat: lets you add more than one ups to a single daemon.
    • upsd: adds ACLs for NUT users / clients into upsd.conf
    • usersconcat: adds users to upsd.users
  • Disable nut service.

      class { 'nut':
        disable => true
      }
    
  • Remove nut package

      class { 'nut':
        absent => true
      }
    
  • Enable auditing without without making changes on existing nut configuration files

      class { 'nut':
        audit_only => true
      }
    
  • Module dry-run: Do not make any change on all the resources provided by the module

      class { 'nut':
        noops => true
      }
    

USAGE - Overrides and Customizations

  • Use custom sources for main config file

      class { 'nut':
        source => [ "puppet:///modules/example42/nut/nut.conf-${hostname}" , "puppet:///modules/example42/nut/nut.conf" ], 
      }
    
  • Use custom source directory for the whole configuration dir

      class { 'nut':
        source_dir       => 'puppet:///modules/example42/nut/conf/',
        source_dir_purge => false, # Set to true to purge any existing file not present in $source_dir
      }
    
  • Use custom template for main config file. Note that template and source arguments are alternative.

      class { 'nut':
        template => 'example42/nut/nut.conf.erb',
      }
    
  • Automatically include a custom subclass

      class { 'nut':
        my_class => 'example42::my_nut',
      }
    

USAGE - Example42 extensions management

  • Activate puppi (recommended, but disabled by default)

      class { 'nut':
        puppi    => true,
      }
    
  • Activate puppi and use a custom puppi_helper template (to be provided separately with a puppi::helper define ) to customize the output of puppi commands

      class { 'nut':
        puppi        => true,
        puppi_helper => 'myhelper', 
      }
    
  • Activate automatic monitoring (recommended, but disabled by default). This option requires the usage of Example42 monitor and relevant monitor tools modules

      class { 'nut':
        monitor      => true,
        monitor_tool => [ 'nagios' , 'monit' , 'munin' ],
      }
    
  • Activate automatic firewalling. This option requires the usage of Example42 firewall and relevant firewall tools modules

      class { 'nut':       
        firewall      => true,
        firewall_tool => 'iptables',
        firewall_src  => '10.42.0.0/24',
        firewall_dst  => $ipaddress_eth0,
      }
