I’ve been quite busy work-wise so I haven’t had the chance to catch up with you all. We’ve made great progress so far and I would like to start dishing out some more tasks - I know I have my own backlog to go through! So @tad@tanner@yousef@logan give me a brief summary of where you guys are at and if you need anything.
Apologies for the lack of communication on IRC. Swamped in real-life I’m afraid.
Hey Will! On my end, I can let you know my progress with WPMS. @tanner has been mentoring me quite a bit with server administration, and I was able to get the proper permissions to set up the two servers and the database with WordPress installations on each.
To sync the settings, I put wp-content (which contains themes, plugins, etc.) on the mounted share and symlinked both of the installations to it. I also did a preliminary setup of multisite, although domain mapping will require extra thinking and planning.
@tanner set up some basic load balancing through Route 53, although we plan to use the LBaaS on HP Cloud (if possible) for the final setup.
I need to work on getting Puppet passwords hidden somewhere. Right now I’m preparing for a presentation on Wednesday at a National Education ICT conference, but I’m kind of working on puppet in the background, and will have more time to focus next week
Appreciate the responses guys. I guess we’ve all been swamped. I hope to get some stuff together for the next meeting but apologies if I don’t get your tasks setup in time. Busy week and it’s St Patrick’s weekend here so lots of family stuff going on.
