Group -
I'm putting a presentation together for $work (a large .gov) and I want
to make sure I get my facts (pun intended) straight ...
heh :)
Are the following steps for Facter-Client-Server interaction correct (I
have a feeling not):
1. Client puppet run is initiated (via regular schedule, puppetrun, or
puppetd)
2. The client contacts the server and downloads any custom facts it does
not already have
3. Client runs Facter (including the custom facts)
4. Client sends output of Facter back to server
5. Server builds the manifest to send to client based on Facter output
6. Client applies manifest from server.
As far as I can see it, you've got it right. The only "detail" I'd fix
is that the steps 4 and 5 are actually one http GET call and cannot be
separated.
Best Regards, David
