Installing tasks
Puppet Enterprise comes with some pre-installed Bolt tasks, but you must install or write any other tasks you want to use.
PE comes with
facter_task, package, service, and puppet_conf tasks. Use the package task
to inspect, install, upgrade, and manage packages. Use the service task to start, stop, restart, and check
the status of services running on your systems.
Tasks and are packaged in Puppet modules, so you can install them directly from the Forge or install and manage them with a Puppetfile and Code Manager.
If you plan to run tasks from the
console, those tasks must be installed into the production
environment.
