Puppet Deploy configuration changes using a orchestrator

Question

I am working on Puppet Enterprise-2019.1, I have a set of changes that needs to be configured and deployed using an orchestrator. what's the way forward?

Answer 1

You can use the orchestrator to enforce change based on a:

• selection of nodes – from the console or the command line:

puppet job run --nodes <COMMA-SEPARATED LIST OF NODE NAMES>

• PQL nodes query – from the console or the command line, for example:

puppet job run --query 'nodes[certname] { facts {name = "operatingsystem" and value = "Debian" }}'

• application or application instance - from the command line.

If you're putting together your own tools for running Puppet or want to enable CI workflows across your infrastructure, use the orchestrator API.
