Introduction
Func is a multifaceted multi-module application for generating secure connections to one or more remote machines. Managing a build farm of many arm machines has the potential to utilize this software to great potential. Proper installation and configuration of this software goes hand in hand with the development and deployment of other cluster management software such as Puppet and Icinga. Func can perform functions such as executing remote shell commands, calling hardware info, querying RPM databases of one or more machines managed by the Overlord machine, and contributes to CDOTs goal of centralized management
Approach
Before actually putting Func into action on production systems within CDOT I set up a test environment using my current VMWare ESXi infrastructure at home.
My approach was to deploy several Virtual Machines and use one of them as a primary Func machine which will allow me to push out commands to several Virtual Machines that I have setup in my Infrastructure. After I was successful in my approach on my test environment I had finally made the necessary changes to the machines that are present in CDOT.
