前言
Puppet这个词实际上包括了两层含义：它既代表编写这种代码的语言，也代表对基础设施进行管理的平台。做运维总是靠流程驱动和事故驱动，无论是生产还是测试环境配置上的不统一使得团队的整体效率大打折扣。能够在开发者的笔记本或是在QA环境下正常工作的代码，往往在部署到生产环境后就会出现问题，最糟糕的是没人知道问题的根源在哪里。而Puppet是一个优秀的基础设施管理平台，可以让每个系统管理员更高效地完成工作，Puppet能够为共享的代码库提供一种强力的粘合剂，以统一不同团队的工作。Puppet可以帮助处于各种不同状况的团队增强协作能力，以进行软件开发和发布的——这种工作方式的演变通常被称做DevOps。
Puppet是最佳的集中配置管理系统之一

工作原理
Puppet采用了非常简单的C/S架构，所有数据的交互都通过SSL进行，以保证安全
客户端Puppetd向Master发起认证请求，或使用带签名的证书。
Master告诉Client你是合法的。
客户端Puppetd调用Facter，Facter探测出主机的一些变量，例如主机名、内存大小、IP地址等。Puppetd将这些信息通过SSL连接发送到服务器端。
服务器端的Puppet Master检测客户端的主机名，然后找到manifest对应的node配置，并对该部分内容进行解析。Facter送过来的信息可以作为变量处 理，node牵涉到的代码才解析，其他没牵涉的代码不解析。解析分为几个阶段，首先是语法检查，如果语法错误就报错；如果语法没错，就继续解析，解析的结 果生成一个中间的“伪代码”（catelog），然后把伪代码发给客户端。
客户端接收到“伪代码”，并且执行。
客户端在执行时判断有没有File文件，如果有，则向fileserver发起请求。
客户端判断有没有配置Report，如果已配置，则把执行结果发送给服务器。
服务器端把客户端的执行结果写入日志，并发送给报告系统。
这就是puppet的工作流程，最重要的莫过于puppet-master来管理node的配置文件。
准备工作
以rhel6.3为例，前期核心在于配置yum，更多技巧可以参考以下文章
RHEL(Red Hat Enterprise Linux)配置yum源 - http://wsgzao.github.io/post/yum/
#关闭iptables
/etc/init.d/iptables stop
chkconfig iptables off
#关闭selinux
setenforce 0
sed -i 's/SELINUX=enforcing/SELINUX=disabled/' /etc/selinux/config
#NTP同步
ntpdate 0.rhel.pool.ntp.org
crontab -e
0 0 * * * /usr/sbin/ntpdate 0.rhel.pool.ntp.org;/usr/sbin/hwclock -w
#添加hosts

puppet agent --server=master

Troubleshooting
硬件配置/操作系统记得按照Puppet的官方建议来做，遇到错误仔细分析日志
https://docs.puppetlabs.com/pe/latest/install_system_requirements.html
https://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/troubleshooting.html
#Error: Could not find certificate request for client
#execute on your puppet master.
puppet cert clean "yourhostnamehere"
#execute on your puppet agent.
rm -f /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl/certs/yourhostnamehere
find /var/lib/puppet -name *yourhostnamehere* -delete
puppet agent -t
#back for your puppet master
puppet cert --list
#check your name certificate and sign.
puppet cert --sign "yourhostnamehere"
#come back to your puppet agent and be happy :D
puppet agent -t
#客户端报错提示的方法也是类似
Error: Could not request certificate: The certificate retrieved from the master does not match the agent's private key.
To fix this, remove the certificate from both the master and the agent and then start a puppet run, which will automatically regenerate a certficate.
On the master:
puppet cert clean "client"
On the agent:
1a. On most platforms: find /var/lib/puppet/ssl -name client.pem -delete
1b. On Windows: del "/var/lib/puppet/ssl/client.pem" /f
2. puppet agent -t
#Error: Could not run: Could not create PID file: /var/run/puppet/master.pid
