The command you provided is a Puppet command used to apply a Puppet manifest file with Hiera data.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
puppet apply
: This is the Puppet command that applies a Puppet manifest file.--modulepath ${path-to-directory}
: This option specifies the directory where Puppet should look for modules. Modules are reusable units of Puppet code and are organized within directories. Replace${path-to-directory}
with the actual directory path.--hiera_config ${filename}
: This option specifies the Hiera configuration file that Puppet should use to handle data lookups. Hiera is a key-value lookup tool that Puppet uses to separate data from code. Replace${filename}
with the actual file name.${path-to-manifest}
: This is the path to the Puppet manifest file that will be applied. A manifest file contains the Puppet code that defines the desired state of the system Puppet manages.
By executing this command, Puppet will apply the specified manifest file using the defined modulepath and Hiera configuration file.
