* A service account for your CI systems within that cloud/clouds.
* Optionally a service account for your Jenkins nodes (separation of concerns -
this account has its credentials loaded into the cloud itself). You can run
with one account, but then you risk a larger cascade compromise if there is
a bug in nodepool.
* A domain for your servers to live in; puppet is hostname based, having
everything in sync is just easier.

1. Follow http://ci.openstack.org/puppet.html#id2 but use your repository
rather than the OpenStack CI repository.
Changes required
================
site.pp
~~~~~~~
This file lists the specific servers you are running. Minimally you need a
ci-puppetmaster, gerrit (review), jenkins, jenkins01, puppet-dashboard,
nodepool, zuul, and then one or more slaves with appropriate distro choices.
A minimal site.pp can be useful to start with to get up and running. E.g.
delete all but the puppetmaster and default definitions.
modules/openstack_project
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This tree defines the shape of servers (some of which are unique, some of which
are scaled horizonally, thus the separation). To run your own infrastructure we
recommend you copy the entire tree, delete any servers you won't run, and
replace hostnames and class names with yours throughout.
Some templates can be used as-is by leaving their references to point within the
openstack_project tree.
Bootstrapping
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The minimum set of things to port across is:
* modules/openstack_project/manifests/params.pp
* modules/openstack_project/manifests/puppet_cron.pp
* modules/openstack_project/manifests/server.pp
* modules/openstack_project/manifests/template.pp
* modules/openstack_project/manifests/automatic_upgrades.pp
* modules/openstack_project/manifests/base.pp
May need additional changes beyond the search/replace?
- User list.
* modules/openstack_project/manifests/users.pp
* modules/openstack_project/manifests/puppetmaster.pp
* modules/openstack_project/templates/puppet.conf.erb
* The default node definition in site.pp
* The ci-puppetmaster definition in site.pp
* The puppet-dashboard definition in site.pp
Then follow the puppet.rsh instructions for bringing up a puppetmaster,
replacing openstack_project with your project name. You'll need to populate
hiera at the end with the minimum set of keys:
* sysadmins
* dashboard_password and dashboard_mysql_password
Copy in your cloud credentials to /root/ci-launch - e.g. to
``$projectname-rs.sh`` for a rackspace cloud.
Stage 2
~~~~~~~
Migrate:
* modules/openstack_project/manifests/dashboard.pp
Then start up your puppet dashboard (see :file:`launch/README` for full
details)::
sudo su -
cd /opt/config/production/launch
. /root/ci-launch/
export FQDN=servername.project.example.com
puppet cert generate $FQDN
./launch-node.py $FQDN --server ci-puppetmaster.project.example.com
* This will chug for a while.
* Run the DNS update commands [nb: install your DNS API by hand at the moment]
* ssh into the new node and update its ``/etc/default/puppet`` to autostart
per the launch README.
