I have 39 RHEL nodes running the puppet agent and intermitently from 1 to 3 
nodes will go unresponsive and require intervention to become active again.

I collected the following for one such instance from this morning:

Hung Puppet agent information:

[root@anmvwms3 ~]# rpm -qa | grep puppet

Right now, I just restart puppet on the node to get it to resume 
functioning.

Is this a known issue?
