In case this isn't clear, in master/agent operation, modules only need to be installed on the master. You don't need to install the puppet-module tool on every puppet agent and use puppet-module install command to update the agent. Puppet agents will pluginsync files in the module lib directory when they contact the master. The agents will automatically add/remove files as modules are installed/removed from the puppet master. See: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/plugins_in_modules.html#enabling-pluginsync Thanks, Nan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
