Hi Paras,
Whenever puppet agent requested catalog from puppet master then it
first check the certificate information present or not(agent registered or
not).
At time of first run puppet agent request for certificate and skip the
execution of puppet manifests catalog, This happen until puppet master sign
(register) the certificate request of puppet agent.
When you sign the certificate request of agent on master then only it
execute the puppet manifests.
If you dont want to apply actual changes of puppet manifests but want to
check execution flow the use --noop option.
# puppet agent --server puppetmaster --waitforcert 60 --test --noop
Refer http://docs.puppetlabs.com/learning/agent_master_basic.html for
working of puppet master-agent working.
Thanks and Regards,

It is actually easier than that. I use this command: puppet agent --test --server puppetmaster --waitforcert 0 From http://docs.puppetlabs.com/man/agent.html : --test Enable the most common options used for testing. These are ''onetime'', ''verbose'', ''ignorecache'', ''no-daemonize'', ''no-usecacheonfailure'', ''detailed-exit-codes'', ''no-splay'', and ''show_diff''. --waitforcert This option only matters for daemons that do not yet have certificates and it is enabled by default, with a value of 120 (seconds). This causes ''puppet agent'' to connect to the server every 2 minutes and ask it to sign a certificate request. This is useful for the initial setup of a puppet client. You can turn off waiting for certificates by specifying a time of 0. “Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.” Bill Waterson (Calvin & Hobbes) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rahul Khengare" <rahulk1306@gmail.com> To: puppet-users@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2013 2:22:03 AM Subject: [Puppet Users] Re: register question Hi Paras, Whenever puppet agent requested catalog from puppet master then it first check the certificate information present or not(agent registered or not).

I never specify the option because I want it to fail immediately, and it does ;-) -- Jo Rhett Net Consonance : net philanthropy to improve open source and internet projects.
