The thing is that I am really really experienced with ansible, On both Linux and Windows. Just not on BSD. So before going that route, I wanted to check that there is no other obvious solution.
I will take a look at @npub1060…ydzs suggestion of rdist too. I think I may have used it before, like really long ago.

So if I want to run multiple OpenBSD servers running the same copy of an application, configuration management seems the logical step.
Like, the whole kubernetes thing is way to complicated for a lot of things, but having a declarative way to think about you applications and settings is nice.
I believe @npub1y90…900y is using (some) ansible here. Is ansible my goto solution to do config management on OpenBSD or are other tools I could consider?

Managed to more or less finish the Nextcloud setup for the #runbsd project.
Only thing left to fix is the redis config.
I directly hooked up the phone and computer of our youngest and of myself.
So I guess this is mission critical infrastructure now :-)
