Interpreting output of the puppet apply command

As you have already witnessed, the output presented by Puppet is rather verbose. As you get more experienced with the tool, you will quickly learn to spot the crucial pieces of information. Let's first take a look at the informational messages, though. Apply the service.pp manifest once more:

root@puppetmaster:~# puppet apply puppet_service.pp
Notice: Compiled catalog for puppetmaster.example.net in environment production in 0.48 seconds
Notice: Applied catalog in 0.05 seconds

Puppet took no particular action. You only get two timings: one from the compiling phase of the manifest, and the other from the catalog application phase. The catalog is a comprehensive representation of a compiled manifest. Puppet bases all its efforts concerning the evaluation and syncing of resources on the content of its current catalog.

Now, to quickly force Puppet to show you some more interesting output, pass it a one-line manifest directly from the shell. Regular users of Ruby or Perl will recognize the call syntax:

# puppet apply -e'service { "puppet": enable => true, }'
Notice: Compiled catalog for puppetmaster.example.net in environment production in 0.62 seconds
Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/Service[puppet]/enable: enable changed 'false' to 'true'
Notice: Applied catalog in 0.12 seconds.
We prefer double quotes in manifests that get passed as command-line arguments, because on the shell, the manifest should be enclosed in single quotes as a whole.

You instructed Puppet to perform yet another change on the Puppet service. The output reflects the exact change that was performed. Let's analyze this log message:

  • The Notice: keyword at the beginning of the line represents the log level. Other levels include Warning, Error, and Debug
  • The property that changed is referenced with a whole path, starting with Stage[main]. Stages are beyond the scope of this book, so you will always just see the default of main here
  • The next path element is Main, which is another default. It denotes the class in which the resource was declared. You will learn about classes in Chapter 4, Combining Resources in Classes and Defined Types
  • Next, is the resource. You already learned that Service[puppet] is its unique reference
  • Finally, enable is the name of the property in question. When several properties are out of sync, there will usually be one line of output for each property that gets synchronized
  • The rest of the log line indicates the type of change that Puppet saw fit to apply. The wording depends on the nature of the property. It can be as simple as created, for a resource that is newly added to the managed system, or a short phrase, such as changed false to true
