More than one year, after the ITP of
MCollective was submitted,
MCollective enters Debian unstable. (See
#563951)
Thanks to Damien Raude-Morvan who upload ActiveMQ to Debian and applied my patch for running multiple instances of ActiveMQ with one Initscript. (See
#634868)
Also thanks to micah anderson from the Puppet Debian PKG team who checked my package and uploaded it into Debian.
If you are running Debian sid you can simple install MCollective:
apt-get install mcollective-client # installes the client stuff
apt-get install mcollective # installes the MCollective Server
You can use debconf to configure the MCollective options. The packages also suppports preseeding - so you can configure your MCollective on installation.
Use Debconf to configure STOMP stuff: dpkg-reconfigure -plow mcollective-common mcollective-client mcollective
Please see default preseed file at /usr/share/doc/mcollective-common/examples/mcollective.preseed included into mcollective-common package.
An example ActiveMQ configuration is also included in the mcollective package. See /usr/share/doc/mcollective/examples/activemq.xml.
