Use the orchestrator to set up jobs in the console or on the command line and run Bolt tasks across systems in your infrastructure.
Running a task does not update your Puppet configuration. If you run a task that changes the state of a resource that Puppet is managing, a subsequent Puppet run changes the state of that resource back to what is defined in your Puppet configuration. For example, if you use a task to update the version of a managed package, the version of that package is reset to whatever is specified in a manifest on the next Puppet run.
Note: If you have set up compilers and you want to use tasks, you must
either set
master_uris or your server_list on agents to point to your compilers. This
setting is described in the section on configuring compilers for orchestrator
scale.
