Issue #3669 has been updated by Josh Cooper.

Status changed from In Topic Branch Pending Review to Merged - Pending Release

This was merged in commit:26ce9c79672d578e9aa03d8341d8c315fcf30c8b in master.

NOTE: make sure when documenting this feature that it is enabled by default, in 
the sense that agents will make additional SRV DNS queries, but will gracefully 
fall back to the old behavior, e.g connecting to `Puppet[:server]`. You must 
set `use_srv_records=false` in order to disable DNS SRV lookups.

Feature #3669: Make puppet honor DNS SRV records
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3669

Author: Martin Marcher
Status: Merged - Pending Release
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Jacob Helwig

Target version: Telly
Affected Puppet version: development

I'd like to be able to define where puppet looks for the master server.

I propose the following:

By default try in the following order:

1. Look for a "_x-puppet._tcp.example.com" SRV record (or any name that you 
think is appropriate, but keep it a SRV record)
2. For backwards compatibility, if no SRV record is present look for 
puppet.example.com as a fallback or any value that is configured in the puppet 
config file

Reasoning:

A System Administrator can easily spread out the load over multiple puppet 
servers in this way or define some split horizon which answers with the 
"correct" hostname to use as a puppet master.

Thanks,
Martin
