I have configured dynamic environments in puppet.conf
such as:
modulepath = $confdir/environments/$environment/modules
manifest = $confdir/environments/$environment/site/manifests/site.pp
environmentpath = /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/environments
My environments
dir has the environments along with manifest/site.pp
file and modules
dir.
However when I run the agent sudo puppet agent --test --environment=test
I get the following error (I have not set the environment to production
in the agent's puppet.conf
file):
Warning: Local environment: "test" doesn't match server specified node environment "production", switching agent to "production".
It only applies the production environment's modules.
I am using puppet enterprise 3.7.3.

So it turns out because I was using the PE version, the node was auto-classified to the
production
environment, hence the problem. Changing the environment toagent-specified
in the classification section worked.
