Speeding up provisioing time of OpenVas
Posted: Fri Jun 17, 2016 7:10 am
Hi All,
I'm trying to simplify the initial setup of OpenVas installation using Puppet. I have a few questions:
[*] Is there a way to pre-package up a lot of the downloaded CVTs and to make the initial setup faster? What paths would I need to package up?
[*] /bin/openvas-setup does a lot of the setup, but I'd rather be able to break it down into separate steps for idempotency. Is there a clear guide on what steps are being run?
If possible I'd like to be able to do the minimum to get the OpenVas server running, then let the user run the sync steps at their own speed.
Thanks
Regards
