In the series of "Let us play with some puppet Modules" posts, I'm willing to share my experience related to the usage of some Forge Puppet Modules. To make it more understandable, I'm trying to make use of a set of well-known Puppet's best practice, with a great emphasis on the following (Check the reference section for Websites where you can learn more about Puppet's best practice):
- Roles and Profiles Pattern
- Hiera for Configuration Data
- Module Installation and others prerequisites
- Profile Module creation
- Hiera Configuration
- Roles Configuration
- Puppet Agent Single run
This post is the second within that "Let us play with some puppet Modules" series and it aims to describe bind (named) Installation and configuration using camptocamp/bind Module.
It's true that there's more than one Module on Forge that can help achieve DNS Server Installation and Configuration and the reasons behind choosing one instead of another depends on many factors. In this case, my requirement was to use the same Module for named Installation, zone configuration and addition/modification of DNS Records.

In this case, my requirement was to use the same Module for named Installation, zone configuration and addition/modification of DNS Records.
I. Module Installation and others prerequisites:
The installation of the module from Puppet Forge,
[root@pe-master ~] # puppet module install camptocamp-bind
II. Profile Module Creation:
class profiles::dnsservers ( $named_chroot = false, $named_default_view = {}, $named_config = { 'allow-query' => ['localhost'], 'auth-nxdomain' => 'no', 'bindkeys-file' => '"/etc/named.iscdlv.key"', 'directory' => '"/var/named"', 'dnssec-enable' => 'no', 'dnssec-validation' => 'no', 'dump-file' => '"/var/named/data/cache_dump.db"', 'managed-keys-directory' => '"/var/named/dynamic"', 'memstatistics-file' => '"/var/named/data/named_mem_stats.txt"', 'pid-file' => '"/run/named/named.pid"', 'listen-on' => ['127.0.0.1'], 'listen-on-v6' => ['::1'], 'session-keyfile' => '"/run/named/session.key"', 'statistics-file' => '"/var/named/data/named_stats.txt"', }, $logging = {}, $dns_zones = [ { zonename => 'example.com', ensure => 'present', zone_contact => 'SystemAdministration@mtncameroon.net', zone_ns => ['ns0.example.com'], zone_serial => '2016061401', zone_ttl => '604800', zone_origin => 'example.com', is_dynamic => false, allow_update => [], view => 'default', zone_type => 'master', zone_refresh => '3h', zone_retry => '1h', zone_expiracy => '1w', zone_xfers => undef, zone_forwarders => undef, zone_notify => undef, zone_masters => undef, transfer_source => undef, hash_a_entries => { 'ns0' => { owner => '192.168.0.2', }, 'ns1' => { owner => '192.168.0.3', }, }, } ], $dns_mxs = [ { mxnamevar => 'mx1', zone => 'example.com', owner => '@', priority => '1', host => 'mail.example.com', } ], $dns_acls = [ { aclnamevar => 'test acl', ensure => 'present', acls => ['192.168.0.2'], } ], $dns_records = [], ) { # Add the bind packages and services class { bind: chroot => $named_chroot, default_view => $named_default_view, config => $named_config, logging => $logging, } # Configure zones $dns_zones.each |$dns_zone| { bind::zone { $dns_zone[zonename]: ensure => $dns_zone[ensure], zone_contact => $dns_zone[zone_contact], zone_ns => $dns_zone[zone_ns], zone_serial => $dns_zone[zone_serial], zone_ttl => $dns_zone[zone_ttl], zone_origin => $dns_zone[zone_origin], is_dynamic => $dns_zone[is_dynamic], allow_update => $dns_zone[allow_update], view => $dns_zone[view], zone_type => $dns_zone[zone_type], zone_refresh => $dns_zone[zone_refresh], zone_retry => $dns_zone[zone_retry], zone_expiracy => $dns_zone[zone_expiracy], zone_xfers => $dns_zone[zone_xfers], zone_forwarders => $dns_zone[zone_forwarders], zone_notify => $dns_zone[zone_notify], zone_masters => $dns_zone[zone_masters], transfer_source => $dns_zone[transfer_source], } # Configure Inital A entries in zone bind::a { "Hosts in ${dns_zone[zonename]}": ensure => 'present', zone => "${dns_zone[zone_origin]}", ptr => false, hash_data => $dns_zone[hash_a_entries], } } # Configure MX entries in zone $dns_mxs.each |$dns_mx| { bind::mx { $dns_mx[mxnamevar]: zone => $dns_mx[zone], owner => $dns_mx[owner], priority => $dns_mx[priority], host => $dns_mx[host], } } $dns_acls.each |$dns_acl| { bind::acl {$dns_acl[aclnamevar]: ensure => $dns_acl[ensure], acls => $dns_acl[acls], } } $dns_records.each |$dns_record| { bind::record {$dns_record[namevar]: zone => $dns_record[zone], record_type => $dns_record[record_type], hash_data => $dns_record[hash_data], } } }
III. Hiera Configuration:
As said during the brief introduction above, I'm exclusively using Hiera to store Nodes' configuration data. Below, a sample of Hiera Configuration to create stivesso.local zones with few NS entries, some A entries, but also MX and CNAMEs entries. Note that you can add much more parameters
Because creating such a yaml file for an existing DNS with thousands entries might seem a bit daunting as task, I've written a script available on github that generates a YAML output ready to use for Hiera Configuration based on an existing zone file.

IV. Roles Configuration:
Using the dnsservers profile described in Section II, with the right Hiera Data, we can move forward with the roles modules configuration,
class roles::dns { # Install Oracle Server include profiles::dnsservers
}
IV. Puppet Agent Single run:
And finally, let us trigger a puppet convergence and enjoy the output...
