It runs by default according to the value of the runinterval configuration option (see http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/configuration.html). By default this is every 30 minutes when daemonized. > Can we influence this in any way? > > # Does stopping and starting the agent restart the timer, or will it keep the > same time across restarts? Restarting the agent resets the runinterval to zero. > # Does running puppet agent --onetime affect the timer? Yes. Resets to zero. > # Is there anything else we can do (besides 'splay') to influence the timer > on a system? The runinterval option. I would suggest that this is a question better asked on the mailing list. ---------------------------------------- Bug #11407: How does puppet agent calculate the time to check in? https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11407 Author: Jo Rhett Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: agent Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: Can we please get some documentation for how puppet calculates the time to check in?
