[Puppet Users] Re: Automatic installation of puppet agent from puppet master
You can have autosign enabled on the puppet master but I don't recommend it. You want to have control over the initial deployments since by just blanket auto-signing, you may run into some major issues with too much change too suddenly. As you gain experience, you can bulk sign in chunks once your initial signs and time have been producing no impact. Consider a Puppet run on a node a potentially dangerous production-affecting outage-causing operation like any other.

Hi Deep, Not that i am aware off. As puppet is a pull job and not push. master dont push any thing to puppet agent. All i am saying there may be a way of which i am not aware! I suggest include puppet agent installation as a part of OS installation, i have included it in the VMware templates and in the post installation just run "puppet agent --test" for the 1st time so that it generates cert request to master!
