Puppet Dynamic Environments Setup

[wilddog64]

So I follow this document to setup the puppet dynamic environment, and my puppet.conf for dynamic environment settings looks like this,

    # Setup dynamic environments with R10k
    environment = production
    manifest    = $confdir/environments/$environment/manifests/default.pp
    modulepath  = $confdir/environments/$environment/modules:$confdir/environments/$environment/dist:/opt/puppet/share/puppet/modules/

I used r10k to deploy environments to /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/environments, and it looks like this,

/etc/puppetlabs/puppet/environments
└── atlassian_automation
    ├── manfests
    └── modules
        ├── apache_config
        ├── concat
        ├── custom_facts
        ├── firewall
        ├── hiera-config
        ├── inifile
        ├── iptables
        ├── ntp
        ├── stdlib
        └── vision_config

Now I have a node that registered to this puppet master, and I triggered an agent like this,

puppet agent -t --environment atlassian_automation

While there are some catalogs being synced down to the node, the custom modules I wrote above do not get copied over to my node.  I check the puppetmaster.access.log at /var/log/pe-httpd, and I saw these lines,

It looks like puppet master realize the dynamic environment settings, but why my modules does not get down and applied?  Any thought?

Thanks,

It seems that instead of add the following line in [master], they have to be in [agent] for dynamic environment to work.  So the document does not reflect what PE 3.x is.

The 'manifest' and 'modulepath' parameters are meaningful only to the master.  It should be harmless to copy them into the [agent] section, but not useful.  On the other hand, the 'environment' setting is meaningful (in different ways) to both agent and master, so if you want to specify a non-default environment for an agent then you do need to specify it in the [agent] section or in the [main] section.  Although that may not be clear from the document you referenced, the doc is consistent with that.  The example config for dynamic environments in fact sets the environment in both the [main] section and the [agent] section, and even in the [master] section as well.
