The "exclude_unchanged_resources" setting was added in 7.21.0 and the default should be changed to "true" in Puppet 8 .

When this change is made, the report should not contain resources that didn't change. For example:

{code:puppet}
file { '/tmp/unchanged':
  ensure => file
}
{code}

The first time the agent runs, it should include a resource status for that resource. The second time it runs, it should be excluded since no changes were necessary.

Re: Change default value of "exclude_unchanged_resources"

If `exclude_unchanged_resources` are set to true: Will we still see that a resource is managed by Puppet?

I really love that I can check PE console (or any other reporting frontend) and see if a resource ia managed.

Re: Change default value of "exclude_unchanged_resources"

Martin Alfke the reports seen in the PE Console will still show that info; this change was to optimize some of the redundant data that puppetdb was storing. I can't speak for other reporting frontends though.
