Noop functionality: msg#00071

sysutils.puppet.user

Subject: Noop functionality

I'm thinking about how to set up the processes for Production puppet
runs now. Being ultra-conservative here, we'd like to see what would
happen before pressing the red button.

I can run in noop mode, and everything is evaluated but nothing is done.
A YAML report magically appears on the Puppetmaster which my script
parses and spits out something the management can read (I'm using
reports = store).

I'm currently running puppetd on a daily interval with noop=true in
puppet.conf. My issue is how to make it run --no-noop.

Puppetrun doesn't have anything to override this AFAICS.

Currently I'm saying 'Run puppetd --no-noop everywhere via ssh and a for
loop' but that's not the best.

I can't find a way of using schedules or tags to limit execution because
then you don't see the classes evaluated and feeding into the report.

Is there an easy way I'm missing?

Best regards,
Derek
