Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install puppet-module-puppetlabs-mount-core
on Ubuntu 20.04.
What is puppet-module-puppetlabs-mount-core
puppet-module-puppetlabs-mount-core is:
Puppet lets you centrally manage every important aspect of your system using a cross-platform specification language that manages all the separate elements normally aggregated in different files, like users, cron jobs, and hosts, along with obviously discrete elements like packages, services, and files.
The mount_core module manages mounted filesystems and mount tables.
The module can mount and unmount filesystems, and manage mount tables such as /etc/fstab, /etc/vfstab, or /etc/filesystems depending on your operating system.
Mount resources can respond to refresh events, and can remount a filesystem in response to an event from another resource.
Mount resources automatically create relationships with directories that are either ancestors of the mounted directory or children. This way Puppet will automatically create ancestor directories before the mount point, and will do that before managing directories and files within the mounted directory.
