4 | |||
5 | Torque integrates with "Puppet":http://reductivelabs.com/products/puppet (and acts as web front end to it). |
||
6 | Torque would take care for the bare bone provisioning until the point puppet is running, letting Puppet do what it does best. |
||
7 | Torque will show you *Systems inventory* (based on facter) and can provide information about hosts based on Puppet reports. |
||
8 | |||
9 | Torque can create everything you need when adding a new machine into your network, its goal would be to manage automatically everything you would normally do manually - that could include DNS, DHCP, TFTP, PuppetCA, CMDB and everything else you might consider useful. |
||
10 | *The idea is you can always rebuilt your machines from scratch* |
||
11 | |||
12 | The Torque is design to work in a Large enterprise, where multiple domains, subnets and puppetmasters are required. in many cases, Torque could help remote provisions when no experienced technicians are available. |
