Hi, I'm just getting started with puppet and am looking for some best practices on how to handle node and module inheritance issues. I'm planning to start using heira so want to plan my implementation around hiera specifics.
Specifically, one item I can't seem to find a clean way of dealing with is one-off nodes. For example, let's say I want to apply a class called zabbix::agent to my whole infrastructure, so I put it in common.yaml. But then I find out there are a few nodes that for whatever reason I can't apply this class to. Short of just not inheriting anything from common.yaml is there a clean way to say "inherit everything from common except zabbix::agent"? How are people dealing with the slight variations in their infrastructure? I realize it's possible to code some logic into the classes for these specific one-off hosts but that seems really hackish and brittle.
