# This file is optional.  When placed at /etc/puppetctl.conf it will be
# brought in and modify the default locations of files with puppetctl

# Variables related to puppet:
[puppet]
# These variables are unneeded for most people, as puppet 4-6 have all used
# these locations.

# puppet_bin_path is a colon-separated PATH variable of where to find puppet
# and the ruby instance that ships with puppet.  This is used for parsing the
# lastrunfile and executing puppet.
puppet_bin_path = /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/bin
# Side note, we automatically add /bin and /usr/bin as an assistance measure
# because puppet gets sad without them.  You don't need to add them here.

# For the following two variables, rather than expensively invoke puppet
# to read its config every time, we leave the filenames here.  Override
# if you need to set a different location.

# lastrunfile is the result of 'puppet config print lastrunfile'.
# It's the file we look at to report on puppet status.
lastrunfile = /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/public/last_run_summary.yaml

# agent_catalog_run_lockfile is the result of 'puppet config print agent_catalog_run_lockfile'
# It's the lock file that tells us puppet is currently running.
agent_catalog_run_lockfile = /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache/state/agent_catalog_run.lock


# Variables related to puppetctl:
[puppetctl]
# The location of the file that keeps puppetctl's state.  This needs cross-
# reboot survivability (so not /tmp or the like).
