Update puppet class from Client

Hi all,

This is more a satellite 6 question

Is it possible to add / assign a puppet client to a class on the master from the client ? This is for automation and I can't get it to work.

On an existing client used as a web server I found the following content in
Code:
cat /var/lib/puppet/state/resources.txt

package[httpd]
service[httpd]
file[/etc/httpd/conf.d/aaa-default.conf]
file[/var/www/html/index.html]
file[/etc/httpd/conf.d/welcome.conf]

cat /var/lib/puppet/classes.txt

httpd
settings
httpd

If I add the same content on the client I'd like to be in the same class and rerun
Code:
puppet agent -t

these files are getting overwritten and no httpd rpm will get installed.

Is there a sollution to this or is it even possible with hammer from the client site ?

I already logged a support call with redhat but didn't get an answer yet ?????

Thanks for any help

NAME
puppet-apply - Apply Puppet manifests locally SYNOPSIS
Applies a standalone Puppet manifest to the local system. USAGE
puppet apply [-h|--help] [-V|--version] [-d|--debug] [-v|--verbose] [-e|--execute] [--detailed-exitcodes] [-l|--logdest file] [--apply cat- alog] [--catalog catalog] file DESCRIPTION
This is the standalone puppet execution tool; use it to apply individual manifests. When provided with a modulepath, via command line or config file, puppet apply can effectively mimic the catalog that would be served by puppet master with access to the same modules, although there are some subtle differences. When combined with scheduling and an automated system for pushing manifests, this can be used to implement a serverless Puppet site. Most users should use 'puppet agent' and 'puppet master' for site-wide manifests. OPTIONS
Note that any configuration parameter that's valid in the configuration file is also a valid long argument. For example, 'modulepath' is a valid configuration parameter, so you can specify '--tags class,tag' as an argument. See the configuration file documentation at http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/configuration.html for the full list of acceptable parameters. A commented list of all configuration options can also be generated by running puppet with '--genconfig'. --debug Enable full debugging. --detailed-exitcodes Provide transaction information via exit codes. If this is enabled, an exit code of '2' means there were changes, an exit code of '4' means there were failures during the transaction, and an exit code of '6' means there were both changes and failures. --help Print this help message --loadclasses Load any stored classes. 'puppet agent' caches configured classes (usually at /etc/puppet/classes.txt), and setting this option causes all of those classes to be set in your puppet manifest. --logdest Where to send messages. Choose between syslog, the console, and a log file. Defaults to sending messages to the console. --execute Execute a specific piece of Puppet code --verbose Print extra information. --apply Apply a JSON catalog (such as one generated with 'puppet master --compile'). You can either specify a JSON file or pipe in JSON from standard input. Deprecated, please use --catalog instead. --catalog Apply a JSON catalog (such as one generated with 'puppet master --compile'). You can either specify a JSON file or pipe in JSON from standard input. EXAMPLE
$ puppet apply -l /tmp/manifest.log manifest.pp $ puppet apply --modulepath=/root/dev/modules -e "include ntpd::server" $ puppet apply --catalog catalog.json AUTHOR
