The agent does not pull modules in a master/agent setup. They are only on

The catalog contains the info that the agent needs to get its managed

So Chuck, it looks like you are set up to use what's called directory

setup.
This is in your master config:

I haven't coded this sort of thing but I know of one example. We use a
module where I work to configure our Opsview monitoring software. It sends
requests to the Opsview REST API, parses the responses, and sends more
requests to update anything that needs it.

It's not clear to me exactly what you're trying to do. Unless I'm
misreading something, both of those file resources are exactly the same.
I'm not sure why you would need to manage the same resource twice with the
same settings, but as the earlier person said, you can't.
Maybe part of the confusio
Dan,
You can do those things from the PE console but you don't have to. You can

apply on that manifest out of cron if you have
One of my former co-workers did a talk about Mcollective at PuppetConf.
People involved in this thread might find it useful :) He gives some
examples about doing rolling restarts, you could do something very similar

Your manifests look the same. You do a hiera lookup just as you would if
you weren't using the GPG integration. It's just another data store for
hiera.
You do need to set that up, as other people have mentioned. But it's no
different in the manifests.
