Jira (PUP-9576) Puppet Catalog Command

Issue Type:	Improvement
Assignee:	Unassigned
Created:	2019/03/21 6:13 AM
Priority:	Normal
Reporter:	Patrick Grant

Puppet Version: 5.5.6
Puppet Server Version: 5.3.5
OS Name/Version: RHEL 7.5

Issue raised on behalf of a customer:

In the documentation, it says "Retrieve the catalog for a node" for the command 'puppet catalog find'

When the customer runs this from their master, then they only get the catalog of the master with some changes so it looks like it would be a catalog from the node specified by <certname>.

The commands used were

puppet catalog find --terminus rest --environment production node.domain.org

{{}}

puppet catalog find --terminus rest --server <your.masters.full.domain.name> <your.agents.full.domain.name> > agent-catalog.json

{{}}

I think here we either need to be more clear in our docs on how to use this command properly or if there is an issue here with the functionality then this needs to be resolved.

Re: Puppet Catalog Command

This seems like a change to the docs, since you can only retrieve the catalog for the node you're currently on. Assigning to Jean.
