Dear all, beg your pardon if this question was already answered before, but I'm kind of stuck with this.
I want to learn more about environments, the goal is to assign a node to a different environment via the agent's puppet.conf. But no matter what I try, the node is still using the default environment "production". Found the following in the documentation: https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/4.3/reference/environments_assigning.html <quote> There are two ways to assign nodes to a different environment: Via your ENC or node terminus Via each agent node’s puppet.conf Assigning Environments Via the Agent’s Config File In puppet.conf on each agent node, you can set the environment setting in either the agent or main config section. When that node requests a catalog from the Puppet master, it will request that environment. If you are using an ENC and it specifies an environment for that node, it will override whatever is in the config file. </quote> Steps done: =========== 1. Set up a fresh node: [root@glucks ~]# puppet agent -t Info: Caching certificate for glucks.localdomain Info: Caching certificate_revocation_list for ca Info: Caching certificate for glucks.localdomain Info: Using configured environment 'production' Info: Retrieving pluginfacts Info: Retrieving plugin ... 2. Created the following directory structure for env "test" on the puppet server [root@puppmaster environments]# tree -L 3 . ├── production │ ├── environment.conf │ ├── manifests │ │ ├── site.pp │ │ ├── site.pp~ │ │ ├── site.pp_20160321 │ │ ├── site.pp_orig │ │ └── site.pp_with_pieps_error │ └── modules │ └── stdlib └── test ├── hieradata ├── manifests │ ├── site.pp │ └── site.pp~ └── modules Puppet server, version: [root@puppmaster ~]# puppet-enterprise-version-check Version 2016.1.1 is now available!
