Question 1

Why would you store static configuration files in the files/ directory of a Puppet module?

A : They can be served directly to nodes without modification, simplifying file distribution

B : They allow custom Ruby code execution inside manifest files when referencing them

C : They block other directories from referencing the same file content

D : They become automatically converted into EPP templates by Puppet during compilation

Answer: A

Question 2

A lead engineer notices repeated changes in the integration logs related to file timestamps, not content changes. The module is otherwise correct. How can you ensure the test suite ignores these harmless diffs while preserving full idempotence checks?

A : Always delete the file before each run so Puppet must recreate it

B : Remove the file from your module to bypass the logs entirely

C : Turn off all idempotence checks so no change is ever logged

D : Implement a file resource parameter like replace => false or a carefully tuned parameter set so timestamps aren’t updated if content is unchanged

Answer: D

Question 3

After enabling strict validation for agent run reports, some older modules produce invalid data structures in the final summary, crashing the puppetserver. The admin wants strict reporting for new modules but to exempt legacy modules temporarily. Which advanced approach balances new, strict enforcement with a phased legacy migration?

A : Switch to ephemeral environment merges ignoring old module data entirely

B : Force puppet-lint to fix all legacy modules instantly

C : Use environment-based or module-based configuration that flags certain legacy modules for relaxed validation, while new or updated modules must pass strict checks.

D : Merge environment logs so new modules unify with old code ignoring strict validation

Answer: C

Question 4

You have multiple roles referencing the same set of profiles. How does this approach impact code duplication and environment complexity?

A : The approach forces merging node definitions at the site manifest level only

B : Each role must redefine the same classes and resources, increasing duplication

C : All profiles must be fully rewritten for each role, leading to more complex environment merges

D : Roles can be extremely lightweight, mainly calling profiles, reducing duplication while allowing variety in node definitions

Answer: D

Question 5

A resource fails to apply with “Parameter has no effect” in logs. What does this typically indicate?

A : The variable is missing from the node’s classification but included in the class definition

B : The parameter is not supported by the specified resource type

C : The parameter is recognized but cannot be validated with puppet parser validate

D : The environment data is overriding a valid parameter

Answer: B
