STEP 1: GUIDED INSTALLATION

Before you begin, choose an installation method. We've provided a few paths to choose from.

- Perform a guided installation using the web-based interface. Think of this as an installation interview in which we ask

you exactly how you want to install PE. In order to use the web-based installer, you must be able to access this machine

on port 3000 and provide the SSH credentials of a user with root access. This method will login to servers on your behalf,

install Puppet Enterprise and get you up and running fairly quickly.

- Use the web-based interface to create an answer file so that you can log in to the servers yourself and perform the

installation locally. If you choose not to use the web-based interface, you can write your own answer file, or use the

answer file(s) provided in the PE installation tarball. Refer to Answer File Installation

(http://docs.puppetlabs.com/pe/3.8/install_automated.html), which provides an overview on installing PE with an answer

file.
