After replacing the pulp agent with a gofer (agent) plugin, configuring the client to use
a remote qpid server became less intuitive. The intent was for pulp's use of gofer to be
an implementation detail not exposed to pulp users. But, ...
Today, in fixing (669484 & 669498), I pushed changes to make client configuration more
intuitive for pulp users again. The pulp (gofer) plugin descriptor new references the
server.host in /etc/pulp/client.conf for the qpid broker url. This means editing the
/etc/gofer/agent.conf is no longer necessary. Further, I symlinked 'pulp-agent' to
'goferd' in /etc/rc.d/init.d. This creates pseudo service like 'pulp-server' but for the
agent. When configuring a client (consumer) to connect to a remote pulp server the steps
are as follows:
1) edit /etc/pulp/client.conf and change the server.host
2) service pulp-agent restart
Done.
wiki/ug updates to follow.
Hope this helps,
Jeff
