接着上面的puppet安装一文，虽然puppet会很努力的工作，但还有个问题，我们想了解puppet节点的运行情况，也就是回馈，因为编写puppet语法规则难免出错。但是report目录下的yaml 文件又不具有可读性，客户端很多则邮件又会被淹没，于是这就有了dashboard。

dashboard 跟cacti 有点类似，都使用mysql作为后端数据库。
沿袭前面文章的环境
centos 6
服务端 puppet .test.org
客户端 apache01.test.org
已经配置好了http + passenger


安装dashboard

yum install puppetlabs-release
yum install puppet-dashboard mysql-server ruby-mysql
配置mysql数据库 
 
  
# service mysqld start
# mysql -u root -p
mysql> CREATE DATABASE dashboard_production CHARACTER SET utf8;
>CREATE USER 'dashboard'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'dashboard';
>GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON dashboard_production.* TO 'dashboard'@'localhost';
> flush privileges;
 
  

 
  
 
  
编辑/usr/share/puppet-dashboard/config/database.yml，修改如下
 
  
production:
  database: dashboard_production
  username: dashboard
  password: dashboard
  encoding: utf8
  adapter: mysql
 
  
 
  
 
  

    导入数据 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
# cd /usr/share/puppet-dashboard/
# rake gems:refresh_specs
# rake RAILS_ENV=production db:create
# rake RAILS_ENV=production db:migrate
 
  

 
  
启动puppet-dashboard
 
  
chmod 666 /usr/share/puppet-dashboard/log/production.log
service  puppet-dashboard start
 
  

 
  
这样，puppet-dashboard 就会监听在本地3000端口，使用的是ruby自带的http服务器webrick，可以通过web浏览了。
 
  
 
  
apache作为前端
 
  
配置httpd虚拟主机
 
  
cp /usr/share/puppet-dashboard/ext/passenger/dashboard-vhost.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/dashboard.conf
 
  
 
  
配置文件同样是给debian/ubuntu 用的，需要做一些修改
 
  

 
  
 
  

    1、将日志选项路径 /var/log/apache2 改为/var/log/httpd 
  
 
  
 
  

    2、取个puppet主机的子域名 dashboard.puppet.test.org 
  
 
  
 
  

    3、模块路径由 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
  1. /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-2.2.11/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so  
 
  

    修改为 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
  1. /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_passenger.so 
 
  

    4、passenger路径替换，将 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
  1. /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-2.2.11 
 
  

    修改为 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
  1. /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-3.0.12 
 
  

    （版本号可能有差异，请事先查看是否存在类似的目录） 
  
 
  
 
  

    (其实之前已经配置了passenger，所以这行导入模块可以注释掉) 
  
 
  
 
  

    修改后大概就是这个样子(前3行可以注释掉) 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
  1. # LoadModule passenger_module /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_passenger.so 
  2. # PassengerRoot /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-3.0.12 
  3. # PassengerRuby /usr/bin/ruby 
  4. # you may want to tune these settings 
  5. PassengerHighPerformance on 
  6. PassengerMaxPoolSize 12 
  7. PassengerPoolIdleTime 1500 
  8. # PassengerMaxRequests 1000 
  9. PassengerStatThrottleRate 120 
  10. RailsAutoDetect On 
  11. <VirtualHost *:80>
  12.         ServerName dashboard.puppet.test.org 
  13.         DocumentRoot /usr/share/puppet-dashboard/public/ 
  14. <Directory /usr/share/puppet-dashboard/public/>
  15.                 Options None 
  16.                 Order allow,deny 
  17.                 allow from all 
  18. </Directory>
  19.   ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/dashboard.puppet.test.org_error.log 
  20.   LogLevel warn 
  21.   CustomLog /var/log/httpd/dashboard.puppet.test.org_access.log combined 
  22.   ServerSignature On 
 
  
 
  

    重启httpd 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
  1. service httpd restart 
 
  
 
  

    实时报告 
  
 
  

    设置puppet客户端每次执行完任务后立即报告给dashboard 
  
 
  

    在apache01.test.org上设置puppet客户端 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
  1. [agent] 
  2. report = true
 
  
 
  

    在puppet.test.org 上设置puppet服务端 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
  1. [master] 
  2. reports = store,http
  3. reporturl = http://dashboard.puppet.test.org:80/reports 
 
  
 
  

    导入现有yml文件报告 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
  1. #rake RAILS_ENV=production reports:import REPORT_DIR=/var/lib/puppet/ 
 
  
 
  
 
  

    最后一步 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
  1. cp /usr/share/puppet-dashboard/ext/puppet/puppet_dashboard.rb /var/lib/puppet/reports/ 
 
  
 
  

    启动服务 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
  1. # /etc/init.d/puppet-dashboard start 
  2. # /etc/init.d/puppet-dashboard-workers start
