Issue #9683 has been updated by Dan Bode.
I’m sorry, I don’t understand this. Do we need another set of options for the ENC? I am not exactly sure here. I was trying to say that using the option report_server is kind of confusing in this context because it is actually interacting with the ENC part of the dashboard and doesn't have anything to do with reports. I do understand your confusion in that we currently have another one option that refers to the Dashboard (report_server) This point is probably the least important point being made in this ticket. @randall:To be more specific about the question that I have for you : "should we try to use existing Puppet options in faces when they make sense, or should we always create new action specific options? " ---------------------------------------- Feature #9683: issues with using pre-existing puppet options (UX) https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/9683 Author: Dan Bode Status: Investigating Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: 0.6.0 Keywords: Branch: Roadmapped: No Using pre-existing puppet options creates a potential usability issue: Cloud provisioner currently uses the following pre-existing options to connect to the dashboard: 1. report_server 2. report_port There are two issues with this: 1. These options don't show up as options for cloud provisioner when running 'puppet help node classify' 2. We are potentially overloading these option names in a confusing way (a case could exist where the report_server dashboard is not the same as the ENC dashboard) The advantage of using pre-existing options is that is allows you to potentially reuse your existing puppet.conf file -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
