OPTIONS¶
Note that any configuration parameter that´s valid in the configuration
file is also a valid long argument, although it may or may not be relevant to
the present action. For example,
server is a valid configuration
parameter, so you can specify
--server <servername> as an
argument.
See the configuration file documentation at
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/configuration.html for the
full list of acceptable parameters. A commented list of all configuration
options can also be generated by running puppet with
--genconfig.
