Open Infrastructure

All instructions/commands are noted to install netbox on alpine. Just need to put it in cdist type.

Looking forward to see your next cdist type, go ahead Ahmed!

cdist type done. Testing underway. Hopefully, create a PR tomorrow.

It is working nicely on alpine linux.

I couldn't be able to make __ungleich_postgresql work on alpine correctly specifically there was some cron error.

@Nico Schottelius Backup thing is left and I need little bit guidance about it. LDAP is also left, I would check it also.

Ahmed,

can you try to figure them out with Balazs together?

Ok. I will.

• Create a new VM
• Configure it only using cdist
  • No manual package installations/configs/etc.!
• Ensure that netbox is started automatically at boot
• Ensure that a DB dump is made once per 1h
  • There is a cdist type / there are types doing this already by crontab
• Ensure there is a backup made to place5 (It is at place5 so the backup should go to place6. So, I set it to go to place6)
• DNS name netbox.ungleich.ch
• Migrate our networking / ip address page into netbox
• If possible
  • Connect netbox to our ldap
• Have it tested by llnu (just asked in infra channel)
• Document on how to use it (if not obvious) I haven't explore it much so my effort would be same as some one who gonna use it. Still, if document is needed from me I would be happy to explore and create it.
