Using PuppetDB with Puppet in Debian ==================================== Connecting the Puppet master with a PuppetDB instance requires some manual configuration. Assuming your PuppetDB server is configured, running and serving requests via TLS, the following steps should be sufficient: 1.Enable the following directives in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf's [master] section: storeconfigs = true storeconfigs_backend = puppetdb If you wish to store node reports in PuppetDB, you should additionally set reports = store,puppetdb 2. Copy /usr/share/doc/puppet-terminus-puppetdb/routes.yaml.example to /etc/puppet/routes.yaml, if it does not yet exist. 3. Create /etc/puppet/puppetdb.conf to point the Puppet master to your PuppetDB instance: [main] server_urls = https://puppetdb.example.com:8081 4. Restart the Puppet master.
