Managing configuration

The configuration of your nodes is defined in SC//Reliant™ Platform Manager through properties set at the site, node group, and node level. Platform Manager stores the desired configuration, and Puppet applies it to each node on its next run. The topics in this chapter describe how configuration changes reach your nodes, how scheduled Puppet runs work, and the move from Puppet Launcher to the SC//Reliant Virtual Controller (RVC) for running Puppet.

For a description of each property, see Node group property reference.
