http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/UsingStoredConfiguration#installing-queuing-support-for-storeconfigs It allows you to offload the heavy database work to another worker using a message queue. The async comes into play because puppetmasterd asynchronously updates the queue instead of performing the DB updates and (from what I understand) essentially blocking catalog requests until they complete. -scott -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
