We are excited to add Deployments to Chocolatey Central Management (CCM) which will provide IT teams the ability to easily orchestrate simple orĬomplex scenarios in a fraction of the time over traditional approaches. mkdir -p /.terraform. To allow the use of external plugins we will need to create the plugins directory. Terraform plugins directory Whenever you installed terraform, a /.terraform.d/ directory was created. This can be especially important when you need to ensure the most up to date software is deployed (e.g new versions or critical patches). We will be installing the phillbaker / terraform-provider-elasticsearch as an example.

We often hear from System Engineers that they are looking for a simple way to manage Windows endpoints, which also provides advanced functionality when needed. Self-Service Anywhere allows non-administrators to easily access and manage IT approved software from the office, from home, or anywhere they have an internet connection. Below is an example of windows deployment with some of the available feature sets. Unfortunately, Terraform will re-deploy the entire server if you change the local admin password. Chocolatey for Business (C4B) enables better security, enhanced visibility with centralized reporting, and a self-service GUI. Note: When deploying a windows server in WorkGroup, we recommend keeping the Local Admin password set to its default and change it later via a script.

Chocolatey provides a unique approach to managing your end-user software (desktops / laptops) and can be combined with your existing solutions.
