Create a blank Virtual Machine
Please have your bare Virtual Machine ready before you take part in The CFEngine Roadshow. Please install a bare machine and make it as lean as possible. You even do not need to install ssh, we probably replace it anyway, just use VNC.
We assume a KVM VM. Good descriptions for are avaiable here virt-install

With efficient use of bandwidth in mind the preferred method of installation is a netinstall, we assume x86_64. The CFEngine Roadshow uses local mirrors and needs no external connection in order to be able to install and configure geust VM's.
CFEngine Community
Naming convention
We use a naming convention in order to determine the role of a node*.
| Role | Mnemonic |
|---|---|
| apt_cacher | apt |
| ips_server | ips |
| nfs_server | nfs |
| webapp_server | webapp |
- Check this before you use the node, the mnemonics may change.
Use the last four octets of your Mac Address after the mnemonic as a unique identifier.
You can always check the CFEngine code that manages the role of the server here:
The CFEngine Node Role
CFEngine package
Please install CFEngine 3.6.2 for your distribution of choice.
Debian users are encouraged to build their own package from:
Debian-team
Instructions can be found here:
