Currently, MCollective is not part of Puppet Enterprise, sorry for the
confusion in the original video. See:
http://www.puppetlabs.com/blog/puppet-enterprise-installation-2/

Depending on the version of MCollective, the latest version is single
executable so

mc ping
mc inventory
...

You also need ActiveMQ/RabbitMQ, please see documentation for more details:
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/mcollective/reference/basic/gettingstarted.html

Currently, dashboard does not autoload classes in modules and we have
a feature request to detect and import classes into dashboard.

Add helloworld to the list of classes in dashboard first, then you can
use it for any node. You can also specify it in site.pp

node hostname {
  include helloworld
}

Thanks,
