[Puppet Users] What types of Information Can Puppet Automate?
Hello, We are considering using Puppet Enterprise to help us automate data about our Linux, Unix and Windows Servers. What kinds of automated hardware data can we get from Puppet? Is there a straightforward list available of hardware specs available? Thanks, -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Re: [Puppet Users] What types of Information Can Puppet Automate?
In the process. I need at least a generic list of fields it can automate to understand if it is a viable solution for us. Do you know how I would get such list without downloading Puppet? I can''t due to admin rights restrictions.

You can ''gem install puppet'' as a regular user (from your rvm''ed gem) and then run facter as yourself. I''ve used gem-installed facter while testing ''puppet device'' against a load balancer and everything puppet worked just fine.
