Running jobs on the command line
The orchestrator on the command line gives you the ability to set up jobs and enforce agent runs against a PQL nodes query, a list of nodes, or application targets. For example, did you just add a new class parameter to a set of nodes, or did you just deploy code to a new environment? Use this command to run Puppet and enforce those changes.
The orchestrator command line tool includes the puppet job
, puppet task
, and puppet app
commands.
