[Puppet Users] puppet.conf documentation

[Matt Zagrabelny]

Greetings,

I know that the puppet.conf documentation exists in extreme detail:

http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3.7/reference/configuration.html

What that page doesn't tell me is if the config items map to the
[agent] or [master] sections of the config file.

Does anyone know if that data exists in an easy to consume location?

On my puppet master system I have the following puppet.conf snippet:

[main]
logdir   = /var/log/puppet
vardir   = /var/lib/puppet
ssldir   = /var/lib/puppet/ssl
rundir   = /var/run/puppet
factpath = $vardir/lib/facter
dns_alt_names= puppet-3-7,puppet-3-7.d.umn.edu
stringify_facts  = false
ordering = manifest
environmentpath  = $confdir/environments
basemodulepath   =
$confdir/modules:$confdir/profiles:/usr/share/puppet/modules

Should I also have the same configs on my clients?

For instance, should stringify_facts be set on the clients?

Thanks for any help!

Re: [Puppet Users] puppet.conf documentation ammendment

The best way is to file a ticket against the documentation.

Here is an example of one I did some time ago :

There are a few google results teaching us how to declare puppet as a 
service with a subscription to puppet.conf, which appears unnecessary 
given the above :)


Thanks,

[Puppet Users] puppet.conf documentation ammendment

[James Green]

Could someone kindly add a notice bar to the puppet.conf web documentation
stating that:

*Changes to puppet.conf are picked up automatically by the puppet agent.
You can observe this by making a change and tailing syslog for a few
moments.*

There are a few google results teaching us how to declare puppet as a
service with a subscription to puppet.conf, which appears unnecessary given
the above :)

Thanks,

James
