Hi all,


I'm a cfengine user for the past few years but I have been under pressure to move to other configuration manager solution. I have been able to manage my system with cfengine this far however as openstack  grows in my organization we need a solution that keeps pace with the rapidly changing world of openstack. It would be nice if the cfengine community had update solutions for openstack... The install base of this product is only going to grow... I think cfengine can do a  good job of managing  this infrustructure..

Hello. Are you saying you want to use CFEngine to update OpenStack?

YES,


Opstack is just a set of services that all have confiuration files that need to be managed:

Have you started writing any policies to manage openstack?  At a simple level it's just another set of services but I know it's more than that.  I know at my previous place we found writing openstack policies tricky with cfengine since our installation needed orchestration like actions to make deployments work.
