Question 1

Which practice supports multi-environment data separation for node classification?

A : Disabling external classifiers in favor of a single site manifest

B : Using an environment that bypasses Hiera merges entirely

C : Maintaining environment-specific Hiera hierarchies that override defaults

D : Storing all environment data in a single top-level YAML file only

Answer: C

Question 2

A resource uses notify => Service['app'] and the service uses subscribe => File['/etc/app.conf']. How does Puppet interpret these cross-references?

A : The service resource has a circular dependency with the file resource, causing an error.

B : The service never receives a refresh event because subscribe overrides notify.

C : Both relationships attempt to refresh the service if the file changes, but only one is needed.

D : The file triggers two refresh attempts on the same service, which merges internally to a single event.

Answer: D

Question 3

Which step helps confirm whether an undefined variable error is caused by Hiera’s data hierarchy?

A : Disable environment merges in Hiera so only the top-level data is used

B : Move the variable from Hiera into node classification statements

C : Manually override the variable in the class definition

D : Temporarily set a default value for the lookup() call and check logs

Answer: D

Question 4

The “prod” environment references an old major version of a core module. A dev environment references the latest major version. Some modules in dev depend on that new version, but production needs stability. The business needs a phased approach. Which advanced environment strategy satisfies both dev module dependencies and production stability?

A : Force an immediate upgrade in production ignoring stability concerns

B : Merge environment data from dev and prod to unify module versions on the fly

C : Lock all environments to the older major version to maintain uniformity

D : Maintain a separate environment (e.g., “pre-prod”) that includes the new module major version for deeper testing. Once validated, merge into production carefully

Answer: D

Question 5

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
