pdsupport/pagerduty — version 1.0.1 Jun 22nd 2016

puppet-pagerduty

Description

A Puppet report handler for sending notifications of failed runs to PagerDuty. It includes sending all log data in the details section of the API call.

Installation & Usage

  1. Install this module on your master node: /opt/puppetlabs/bin/puppet module install pdsupport-pagerduty

  2. Install the gem dependencies on your master node:

    • /opt/puppetlabs/server/bin/puppetserver gem install puppet
    • /opt/puppetlabs/server/bin/puppetserver gem install json
    • /opt/puppetlabs/server/bin/puppetserver gem install redphone
  3. Manually install pagerduty.rb to /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/reports/ by copying the script into the directory. This is due to the Puppet issue documented here

  4. Create a Puppet specific service that uses the Puppet integration in PagerDuty

  5. Add the pagerduty class to your master node's main manifest:

     class { 'pagerduty': }
    
  6. List pagerduty as a report handler on your master node in puppet.conf:

     [master]
     reports = pagerduty
    
  7. Enable pluginsync and reports on your master and client nodes if it is not already:

    You can manually enable in puppet.conf:

     [master]
     report = true
     pluginsync = true
     [agent]
     report = true
     pluginsync = true
    

    Or you can enable within the pagerduty class in your master node's manifest:

    class { 'pagerduty':
      pagerduty_puppet_reports    => 'store,http,pagerduty',
      pagerduty_puppet_pluginsync => 'true',
    }
    

    Note: The step above is optional. These settings are true by default as of Puppet 3.0.0.

  8. Restart the puppetserver service

  9. Move the pagerduty.yaml.erb template into your master node's confdir and rename the file pagerduty.yaml

    mv /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/modules/pagerduty/templates/pagerduty.yaml.erb /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/pagerduty.yaml
    
  10. Edit your pagerduty.yaml file and add your Puppet service's integration key from PagerDuty

    ---
    :pagerduty_api: 'INSERT_INTEGRATION_KEY_HERE'
    
  11. To test that a failed run will trigger a PagerDuty incident, edit the pagerduty module’s init.pp manifest and uncomment lines 9-13

    if ! defined(Service[$pagerduty_puppet_service]) {
      service { $pagerduty_puppet_service :
        ensure => running,
      }
    }
    
  12. Run the Puppet client and sync the report as a plugin: /opt/puppetlabs/bin/puppet agent --test
