OMSA is the Dell OpenManage System Administrator and it's a useful tool to check and configure your Dell HW from within the operating system This puppet module takes care of installing it from Dell's repos and and creates a basic configuration
The most easy way to install puppet-omsa is to simply include the main class:
include ::omsa
This will install the basic package, the storage (RAID) module and the RAC5 module.
NOTE: if you are installing OMSA with a manual puppet run, you have to log out
and log in again to have omreport
and omconfig
executables in your path
By default puppet-omsa enable external Dell's repositories (based on your OS), but if you want you can disable this feature
class { '::omsa':
manage_repo => false,
}
-

This module has been tested on real hardware by the author only on CentOS7, but it should work with CentOS6 and RHEL6 and 7. It has been tested in Vagrant with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and it should work on bare metal with Debian 7 and Debian 8 too, and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
If you find any bug (they are there for sure!) or if you have any new feature, you are very warmly welcomed to submit an issue and if you can a PR. I promise that I'll try to answer everything ASAP (I've been burnt by maintainers completely ignoring bugs and PRs too, so I know how it is).
