Hello Albert,
The Puppet OpenStack project is available and can be used but has a very low amount of contributors and I would classify it being in a more maintenance state.
I'd like to highlight here that Tobias has been doing an enormous amount of work in the puppet-openstack project, and anyone using puppet should thank him for it.
Takashi has been doing a lot of great work with cleanup, fixing bugs and making sure a lot of the modules are up-to-date so it should be usable in it’s current state.
I tried setting-up bobcat recently (just right after I finished the Debian packaging) and it worked. The only thing that I didn't test yet, is using user tokens for cinder/nova communication, so my setup should be broken regarding Cinder (as this is required starting with Bobcat), though it should be easy to fix.
I think Julia is thinking mostly about it being used in the RedHat product before where it mostly did configuration but it can be used to deploy all the software as well, but it’s correct that it doesn’t handle the lifecycle of a OpenStack cluster for example upgrades.
Yeah, but for a project like the one I maintain, this is easily handled by a small shell script doing the necessary apt work. More on this when we're done enhancing it (as we're trying to reduce the API down time to a minimum). Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
