Upgrading agents
Upgrade your agents as new versions of Puppet Enterprise (PE)
become available. The puppet_agent module helps automate
upgrades, and provides the safest upgrade. Alternatively, you can use a script to upgrade
individual nodes.
Before upgrading agents, verify that the primary server and agent
software versions are compatible. Component versions in recent PE releases lists which Puppet agent versions are tested and supported for each
PE release.
After upgrading, run Puppet on your agents (such as with puppet agent -t) as soon as possible to verify that the
agents have the correct configuration and your systems are behaving as
expected.
