Foreman 0.1-2 is released

Added by Ohad Levy 9 months ago

I'm happy to announce the next stable release of Foreman (0.1-2), main new features include:

  • General
    • LDAP / AD Authentication support.
    • Audit Log - keeps information about changed host values (e.g. host environment, external node parameters etc).
    • Added Puppet module for installing/managing foreman
  • Puppet Reports
    • Added a basic dashboard, allows you to know your puppet client status at a glance.
    • Added retention rules to expire old reports
  • Added query interface
    • Similar mini functionally like storeconfigs, allows puppet clients to collect list of hosts based on a class or a fact groups
    • Provide host list to external tools e.g. Capistrano, *ssh etc
  • Unattended installations
    • allow to have reusable configurations (snippets) across operating systems (e.g. for puppet.conf)

Additionally a lot of bugs were fixed, if you are using foreman, it is highly recommended to upgrade.
