Issue #2049 has been updated by Mukul Malhotra.

Hi,

I am following the similar way by modifying client puppet.conf with 
cached_catalog = true but receiving the following error message in offline mode 
as,

err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: getaddrinfo: Name
or service not known
err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run
err: Could not send report: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known 

Also how & where to define --no-server so that it will not get to the server 
while offline & cache the config locally.

Any help/advice will be appreciated.
Thanks

Feature #2049: Allow puppet to run in an offline mode that only uses the cache

I've been poking at adding this feature for a while, so I thought I'd put in 
the feature request and see what the consensus is on what this option should be 
named, or whether there is violent disagreement as to whether it should exist.

I want the ability to tell puppetd to only use the cache and not to talk to the 
server at all.

That way we can schedule our laptop clients to still run puppet regularly to 
enforce security policies, but reduce load on our servers by only downloading a 
new catalog once or twice a day.

This looks pretty simple to add, but I'm unsure as to the best name for this 
option.

--usecacheonly
--no-server

???
