Install Puppet 6 Agent and Server on CentOS 8
We dive straight into the install of the Puppet 6 Server and Agent on CentOS 8. Although the Puppet Agent ships with the EPEL repository we need to get the Puppet Server from Puppetlabs. We add the puppetlabs repo and install the Puppet Server package which will also add the agent. Using CentOS 8 from AWS using a t2.small instance we have 2GB ram. The Java based Puppet Server normally will want 2GB so we adjust it to use just 1GB and add host record of puppet so the agent knows where the server is. We can apply local Puppet manifests with Puppet Apply or collect them from the server and we show a simple site manifest
