I enabled the dashboard for my project. We update 180 nodes in rapid succession. I found that the delayed dashboard workers were slowing my computer down even more than the puppet workers themselves. Very odd, but I did not put the time into seeing what the problem was.
Given my specific situation I'll probably just add a script at the end of the update that reports back to a server on my computer. The server then tells me which nodes have not completed updates. I guess the big question is now, how do I make that script dependent on a 100% successful puppet update.
