- 4. Using Vagrant On the host $ mkdir vagrant-test; cd vagrant-test $ vagrant init precise32 http://files.vagrantup.com/precise32.box $ vagrant up $ vagrant ssh On the guest vagrant@precise32:~$ ls /vagrant Vagrantfile 4 On the host $ ls ./vagrant-test Vagrantfile milestone42
- 5. Configuring the environment – simplistic Vagrantfile bootstrap.sh 5 milestone42
- 6. (Very) Brief overview of Salt • Distributed configuration management • Rapid deployment across large numbers of hosts. • Uses Python as the implementation language. Salt master Salt minion 6 Salt minion Salt minion milestone42
- 7. Configuring the environment with Salt On the host: One additional package $ vagrant plugin install vagrant-salt Create the salt configuration $ cd test-vagrant $ mkdir –p ./salt/roots $ touch salt/minion $ touch salt/roots/apache.sls $ touch salt/roots/top.sls Vagrantfile 7 milestone42
- 8. Configuring the environment with Salt Additions to the Vagrantfile for Salt ./salt/minion 8 ./salt/roots/top.sls ./salt/roots/apache milestone42
