DashBoard是puppet的控制台，用于显示puppet master和puppet agent的相关信息。本文以默认的WEBRick提供Web服务。DashBoard 安装在master.test.com。并且在客户端配置文件做如下配置
#vim /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
[agent]
report = true
一、安装依赖软件包
#rpm -ivh http://yum.puppetlabs.com/el/6Server/products/x86_64/puppetlabs-release-6-6.noarch.rpm
#yum -y install mysql mysql-devel mysql-server ruby ruby-devel ruby-irb ruby-mysql ruby-rdoc ruby-ri rubygems
#gem install rake
二、安装DashBoard软件包
#yum install -y puppet-dashboard
三、配置DashBoard
1创建数据库
#vim /etc/my.cnf
max_allowed_packet = 32M
#service mysqld start
#chkconfig mysqld on
#mysql
mysql>create database dashboard CHARACTER SET utf8;
mysql>create user ‘dashboard‘@‘localhost‘ IDENTIFIED BY ‘dashboard‘;
mysql>grant all privileges on dashboard.* TO ‘dashboard‘@‘localhost‘;
mysql>flush privileges;
2修改配置文件
#vim /usr/share/puppet-dashboard/config/database.yml
production:
database: dashboard
username: dashboard
password: dashboard
encoding: utf8
adapter: mysql
#vim /usr/share/puppet-dashboard/config/settings.yml
time_zone: ‘Asia/Shanghai‘
3导入数据库,启动服务
#cd /usr/share/puppet-dashboard/config
#rake RAILS_ENV=production db:migrate
#service puppet-dashboard start
#chkconfig puppet-dashboard on
#rake RAILS_ENV=production db:raw:optimize #优化数据库
4导入现有报告
#cd /usr/share/puppet-dashboard
#rake RAILS_ENV=production reports:import
5配置实时发送报告
#vim /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
reports = store,tagmail,log,puppet_dashboard,http
reporturl = http://172.16.30.220:3000/reports
6开启报告
#rake RAILS_ENV=production jobs:work 2 &>1 &
7访问dashboard
http://172.16.30.220:3000/reports
四、数据库管理
1当puppet dashboard数据量过多的时候，需要优化数据库，可使用命令：
#rake RAILS_ENV=production db:raw:optimize
2清理dashborad一个月之前的数据：
#rake RAILS_ENV=production reports:prune upto=1 unit=mon
3备份puppet dashborad数据库：
#rake RAILS_ENV=production FILE=/my/backup/file.sql db:raw:dump
4恢复数据：
#rake RAILS_ENV=production FILE=production.sql db:raw:restore
