Bug #4974: Need a method of overriding config file tags specification with 
puppetd.
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4974

Author: Tim  Nicholas
Status: Needs more information
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Nigel Kersten
Category: 
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.2
Keywords: 
Branch: 


Currently, so far as I can tell, if tags=x,y is specified in the 
/etc/puppet/puppet.conf then there is no way to override that setting to run 
the full manifest. 

You can get close under some situations with "--tags main", but that doesn't 
inherit upwards from the node definition. Anything defined in 'basenode' (as 
inherited via "node <nodename> inherits basenode {...}") doesn't get executed. 

There isn't any documentation of the 'main' tag, so maybe "--tags main" is 
behaving as it should, but there should be some way of saying 'run everything'. 

Options could include a special ALL tag, changing the behaviour of the 'main' 
tag or introducing an --alltags command line option.
