We have just stumbled across this having moved to external nodes using Foreman.
Our dev environment is where we make quick changes to manifests (and nominally only affect dev nodes), but sometimes those changes are only relevant to production nodes. In those scenarios, on production nodes we used to run: puppetd --test --noop --environment=dev and that would help validate that what we were about to tag would actually work once it made it to production. Once our dev manifests were correct, we would make an svn tag and release that to production. I've quickly read through the below bug and I can see good arguments for and against client nodes being able to set the environment, so I'm not sure how I'd vote. How are others approaching this scenario or has everyone just managed to avoid it?
