James, thanks. I am working with a Red Hat Consultant that visits our
site regularly (I can't tell you who the customer is), but he said that
your product apparently doesn't provide an agent for other OSes; only
Red Hat (variants).
So, I am a little confused by your reply, can you please clarify? Are
you saying that I can open up a ticket with Red Hat Customer Portal and
it won't be a waste of my time (like the other total of 2 tickets have
been)?
Thanks James,
Warron

If you need actual support for puppet and Satellite 6.2, then please
follow up with RH Support directly.
If you need to run Puppet Enterprise as a Master, and desire to have
PE and Satellite 6.1+ be integrated together, then please refer to the
documents written by Puppet and Red Hat. See also the "Puppet
Enterprise & Satellite 6" YouTube video of the talk given at
PuppetConf 2015.

However in your example:
/" I am running Red Hat Satellite 6.2.1, but the Puppet Master is
actually on v3.8.6; is there an agent that I can use on a VMware
machine to manage the packages and other files (all the same)?"
/
What is the "VMware machine"? If "VMware machine" is a RHEL
virtual-machine running on VMware, then you can install the puppet
agent that Red Hat provides by way of a repo from your Satellite on
the RHEL node, which is documented here:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-satellite/6.2/single/host-configuration-guide#sect-Red_Hat_Satellite-Host_Configuration_Guide-Registration-Installing_and_Configuring_the_Puppet_Agent
<https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-satellite/6.2/single/host-configuration-guide#sect-Red_Hat_Satellite-Host_Configuration_Guide-Registration-Installing_and_Configuring_the_Puppet_Agent>
I hope this helps,
James

I know that according to some official training documentation from
Puppet Labs Corp, that VMware has invested in Puppet Labs.
Can anyone tell me though, does the Red Hat Satellite
implementation of Puppet (the master) work with the Puppet
Enterprise agents... assuming the version of agent matches the
version of the master?
For example, I am running Red Hat Satellite 6.2.1, but the Puppet
Master is actually on v3.8.6; is there an agent that I can use on
a VMware machine to manage the packages and other files (all the
same)?
Thanks in advance,
Warron
