@musicman Some time when you're less stressed, maybe you can write something about why you chose #Chef (and what factors you considered overall) over #Ansible and #Puppet. Especially considering that the other two were in the #CentOS repos, but Chef is not.
just opened it up and way too many words for what I need to do...I think. Puppet-forge has a yum-cron playbook...whatever #puppet calls them. I haven't had the time to test it out though, and probably won't until Friday afternoon. If puppet ends up not working out, I'll definitely give this a look.
@musicman I don't see compilation there at all. But I found it soon after you asked about #ansible vs #puppet vs #chef, so it seemed like it might be an interesting example of what Ansible can do and how it works.
#puppet, #chef, or #ansible? Puppet has their own repos for #CentOS 6 and 7. Ansible is already in 7. Chef is in neither by default, so it seems like chef is out. I already installed puppet on a couple, else chef might be better. Would be nice if the repos were the same and it could just detact your version. Maybe #DNF does this? I haven't touched #Fedora in like 7 years until today, not that I did much with it.
