Issue #3669 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.
FWIW 'factsource' should be deprecated, and I'd actually thought it already was... ? pluginsync replaces factsource as a more general solution for delivering plugins of all kinds, not just facts. As pluginsync happens first, it should use the SRV records if no server has been explicitly specified by the user. ---------------------------------------- Feature #3669: Make puppet honor DNS SRV records https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3669#change-60655 Author: Martin Marcher Status: Re-opened Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Telly Affected Puppet version: development Keywords: Branch: https://github.com/jhelwig/puppet/tree/ticket/master/3669-make-puppet-honor-DNS-SRV-records 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.
