Installing tasks and plans
Puppet Enterprise comes with some pre-installed tasks, but you must install all plans or any other tasks you want to use.
Note: Many of the modules that come pre-installed with the open-source
Bolt tool will not be available by default in PE.
PE comes with the following tasks already installed:
-
package
- Inspect, install, upgrade, and manage packages. -
service
- Start, stop, restart, and check the status of a service. -
facter_task
- Inspect the value of system facts. -
puppet_conf
- Inspect Puppet agent configuration settings.
Tasks and plans are packaged in Puppet modules, which you can install directly from the Forge or install and manage them with a Puppetfile using Code Manager. See Managing environment content with a Puppetfile for more information on declaring modules in your Puppetfile.
Additional modules that include helpful task and plan content
include:
-
puppet_agent: Install Puppet Agent package.
-
reboot: Manage system reboots.
