Migration to PuppetDB and Apache/Passenger setup

[christg76]

Hi, I'm in the process of planning a Puppet Upgrade. The current setup uses the ActiveRecord functionality/gem to connect to a MySQL DB for stored configs, exported resources. I'm reading in the Puppet 4 Release Notes that support for ActiveRecord is removed. Is there any standard way to export and import the existing data from MySQL to PuppetDB? The current Puppet version is still 2.7, but will be upgraded to 3.8 before the switch to PuppetDB.
Lastly, are there any packages for Puppet 4 available to use in a APache/passenger setup? I'm running Debian, and from Puppetlabs it looks everything is for PuppetServer.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Puppet 4 has no PuppetMaster running in Apache/Passenger anymore. There's only PuppetServer, which is standalone.

HTH...
