I seem to recall that this is a known issue, but not solved yet. I'd suggest reposting to puppet-dev. A common pattern to work around this is to use a 'boot strap' when provisioning a node. This boot strap only contains enough resources to get the machine, and puppet, to a workable state. After that a second 'full' run is done which applies the typical catalog. To implement this I prefer just using tags, though I know others have used stages and environments as well. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
