In regard to: Re: [Puppet Users] upgrading opensource from 5.5 to 6.x,...:
Hi Tim, Major difference between Puppet 5 and 6: - some types have been moved to separate git module repositories - puppet cert command has been moved to puppet server ca command (see also https://www.example42.com/2018/10/08/puppet6-ca-upgrading/ <https://www.example42.com/2018/10/08/puppet6-ca-upgrading/>) The Puppet doc has more information: https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/latest/release_notes_puppet.html#puppet-deprecations-x.0.0 <https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/latest/release_notes_puppet.html#puppet-deprecations-x.0.0>
So this is far later than it should be, but I wanted to follow-up and thank you for your reply. After having been through the 3.8.x to 5.x upgrade, I thought I had to be missing something for the 5.x to 6.x upgrade. Turns out I wasn't, 5.x to 6.x was just a lot easier than 3.8.x to 5.x. Martin's info confirmed that I had found everything I needed. The Example42 blog post Martin linked was also very helpful in working around the CA changes. The upgrade went smoothly and we've been using 6.x for a few weeks now. Thanks again! Tim

I'm contemplating updating our environment from 5.5 to the most recent 6.x release, and I'm not finding any upgrade documentation of a similar amount of detail. I understand that there are fewer changes and deprecations between 5.5 and 6.x than there were between 3.8 and 5.x, but there has to be more to it than just update the packages without making any changes to your config files, etc. For others that have been through the same upgrade recently, what docs did you follow, and were there any gotchas that weren't covered? Thanks!
