Use Case
To install Puppet Enterprise with organization specific DNS additional cloud configuration alongside what we provide in our open source Terraform modules is required
Example:
User populates a specific DNS zone with the names of infrastructure nodes and uses those names as the configuration items that tie together the communication fabric of PE
Describe the Solution You Would Like
Autope execute of user provided module between the initial provisioning and execution of peadm to export provisioned infrastructure names to a custom DNS zone
Example:
After pe_arch runs and constructs an inventory, user provided module configures custom DNS zone with host names based on provisioned instances using constructed inventory, FQDN using custom domain is passed to peadm instead of cloud provided FQDN
Describe Alternatives You've Considered
User modifies and maintains a forked version of pe_arch modules
Additional Context
More research could be done to determine if this flow works for more than the specific use case. Example is derived from real conversation with user and is meant to facilitate https://github.com/puppetlabs/terraform-aws-pe_arch/issues/11 but might work for other modificaitons which are unrelated to DNS. Multi-staged provisioning in autope is yet to be designed...
