What it looks like to me is going on is the YML file for the host ends up on the Remote Master (which I can verify by looking for it) and the node.rb is running on the Grand Master. Since the YML files isn't on the Grand Master the lookup (of course) fails. So the real question is can we make the YML file go to the Grand Master.To that end I played with a couple of settings Here is a partial dump of what I have in the puppet.conf file for the Remote Master: [master] storeconfigs = true storeconfigs_backend = puppetdb inventory_server =<Grand Master FQDN> autosign = $confdir/autosign.conf { mode = 664 } reports = foreman external_nodes = /etc/puppet/node.rb node_terminus = exec I found a reference to an inventory server in the Puppet docs but that seems to have had no effect on the problem. What I'm wondering about is the "external_node" and "node_terminus" settings. Are those correct for what I'm trying to do or should that be something else?
Those are correct and will cause this process to locally (on the master) execute the node.rb to receive ENC information.
Please re-test whether running node.rb on the master having the right YML file still fails.

I'm wondering whether subsequent runs work. Also, the node.rb will run on the remote client's puppet master, so, probably your "Remote Master". Since the default node.rb from foreman requires this yaml file, it'll not work on your "Grand Master" unless the agent has tried to contact that one too.
