Puppet users - Mar 2012 - Sanity Check Request: Trying something Out-Of-The-Box - MasterLess Puppet

On my puppetmaster:

cd /etc/puppet
tar zcvf ../pmaster.tar.gz *

copy pmaster.tar.gz to another machine that is defined in the manifest/catalog

On different machine:

mkdir -p /usr/local/localPuppet
mv pmaster.tar.gz /usr/local/localPuppet/
cd /usr/local/localPuppet
tar zxvf pmaster.tar.gz

puppet apply [--noop] --debug --modulepath /usr/local/localPuppet/modules
/usr/local/localPuppet/manifests/site.pp

The "--noop" is optional.

Does anyone see any glaringly obvious errors in this ?

That''s pretty much how I bootstrap a puppet master, except that I use
svn to copy configuration into /etc/puppet, and I don''t use an
alternate module path.
