puppet agent is not reflecting my changes

Question

I have installed puppet enterprise 3.7.2 on centos 7.Both Puppet master and agent is working .I can able to view the node from puppet enterprise console and attached screen shot.

I created the manifest file /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/manifests/node.pp with the following content on puppet server.

node 'puppet.client.net' {
  file { '/tmp/hello':
    content => "Hello, world\n",
  }
}

After I executed the following command on master:

 #puppet agent apply  nodes.pp

And then Executed the following command on client node :

#puppet agent -t

Puppet node does not pick any changes from master.

Answer 1

The master will typically try and find manifests in site.pp, not nodes.pp, as that is the default setting for manifest in puppet.conf.

Try setting

manifest=/etc/puppetlabs/puppet/manifests

or better yet, use directory environments from the start.
