An alternative to Puppet or Chef (and I'm a fan of both) would be
Ansible; it's much simpler to pick up, and uses SSH to connect to
machines to manage them -- no master server needed.  I'd say that
with three nodes, something like this is pretty close to being worth
your time.  Have a look through the walkthrough:
