Issue #4974 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.

Status changed from Needs design decision to Accepted
Assignee deleted (Nigel Kersten)

We are going to implicitly tag *all* classes and resources  (everything that is 
taggable) with the special keyword "all".

To get the functionality as described in the original bug report, you would run 
with "--tags=all"

Bug #4974: Need a method of overriding config file tags specification with 
puppetd.

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.
