Hi,

   If you want to check if a server is compliant with a defined  end state,
you can set noop=true in the resources, or just run puppet in noop mode.

​No, he's exactly right.  And please be careful with your spelling...it's
'absent', not 'absend'.  Your puppet manifests are not scripts/sets of
instructions.  They define what end-state you want the node that applies
the resource to be in when the agent has finished running.  i.e. by
specifying 'absent' in your package resource you're not explicitly telling
puppet to uninstall the package.  The package may already not be present,
in which case puppet won't do anything at all (it has nothing to do).  If
the package is present though, puppet will indeed uninstall it.​


​Kind Regards,

Matt.

Hi,

I think the explaination of Gareth is wrong.
absend will uninstall a package

I am using absend to uninstall package and here is a web site about that.

Best regards
