From: Matt Robinson <[email protected]> Puppet masters can now set the inventory_server and inventory_port option to point to another puppet master that will function as the central inventory service. When agents connect to the puppet master, this will send fact data from the puppet master over REST to the inventory service.
The puppet master itself will still store the client fact data in the local yaml dir by setting the cache class to yaml. Getting puppet masters to talk to each other using certs is difficult.
