 Hi,
 I'm a new puppet enterprise user (first post!) and I need to change
 some settings on an individual node.  The module is created and it works in
 my testing, but every method of applying the module to one machine feels

 Thanks,

If the only difference is in the virtual hosts, then you should be able to
apply the same classes to each and use different data only. Hiera, included
with puppet, is a key/value pair lookup tool that can help here, so each
node would receive their vhost data and only their vhosts. I think you
should find plenty of hiera docs on puppet’s websites and others (I’m on my
phone or I’d grab a link or three) and we are glad to help you here or on
slack if you need more help with it.

Thanks Eric.  I've read that documentation and it always refers to multiple 
nodes.  It just feels like I'm doing it wrong.  If I have a small group of 
4 web servers that all run different virtual hosts, the only way to use the 
node classification groups is to pin each node to it's own group and apply 
the classes to them.  I can do that, it just feels like there is a better 
way.

Hi Jack, for puppet enterprise there's a built-in workflow for assigning 
classes to nodes - the phrase you're looking for is called "node 
classification" in puppet-speak.  here's the relevant 
doc: 
https://puppet.com/docs/pe/2017.3/managing_nodes/grouping_and_classifying_nodes.html

hope this helps!
