I've been struggling to find a good way of preventing myself from
shooting myself in the foot when pushing new puppet profiles to my
servers. I try to do rigorous testing, but there is always the odd
system which was setup years ago and keels over when puppet makes the
changes.

The approach I've taken is to run two puppetmasters[1] and only push
the changes to one of them at a time, and waiting for the changes to
stew before pushing to the other. This way I won't take down a whole
site at once.

How have you solved this problem?
