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

puppet-secret_agent

PUPPET-SECRET_AGENT(8)						   Puppet manual					    PUPPET-SECRET_AGENT(8)

NAME

       puppet-secret_agent - Mimics puppet agent.

SYNOPSIS

       puppet secret_agent action

DESCRIPTION

       This subcommand currently functions as a proof of concept, demonstrating how the Faces API exposes Puppet's internal systems to application
       logic; compare the actual code for puppet agent. It will eventually replace puppet agent entirely, and can provide a template for users who
       wish to implement agent-like functionality with non-standard application logic.

OPTIONS

       Note  that  any configuration parameter that's valid in the configuration file is also a valid long argument, although it may or may not be
       relevant to the present action. For example, server is a valid configuration parameter, so you can  specify  --server  <servername>  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.

       --mode MODE
	      The run mode to use for the current action. Valid modes are user, agent, and master.

       --render-as FORMAT
	      The format in which to render output. The most common formats are json, s (string), yaml, and console, but other options such as dot
	      are sometimes available.

       --verbose
	      Whether to log verbosely.

       --debug
	      Whether to log debug information.

ACTIONS

       synchronize - Run secret_agent once.
	      SYNOPSIS

	      puppet secret_agent

	      DESCRIPTION

	      Mimics  a single run of puppet agent. This action does not currently daemonize, but can download plugins, submit facts, retrieve and
	      apply a catalog, and submit a report to the puppet master.

	      RETURNS

	      Verbose logging from the completed run. When used from the Ruby API: returns a Puppet::Transaction::Report object.

	      NOTES

	      This action requires that the puppet master's auth.conf file allow save access to the facts REST terminus. Puppet agent does not use
	      this facility, and it is turned off by default. See http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/rest_auth_conf.html for more details.

EXAMPLES

       synchronize

       Trigger a Puppet run with the configured puppet master:

       $ puppet secret_agent
