I am using foreman1.2 and puppet 3.2 and puppet master and foreman is on
the same host. I am provisioning machine through foreman as well. I am
using parametrized puppet class and overwritten it at class level from web
interface. Created a global parameter with same name as in puppet class and
provided a value. If I go to hosts/edit/parameters, It is showing 'included
parameter via inheritance' and correct value.
but yaml for the host doesn't show any value for that parameter.
Thanks, re-reading of foreman documentation and some experimentation made
it little bit more clearer. I am just reiterating my understanding to
check whether I am right
'Smart Class Parameters' are the variable passed to parametrize class.
Foreman can directly import it from puppet and show it in foreman. If I
overwrite it then it goes into ENC provided by foreman. Default values does
not go into ENC.
'Smart Variables' have to be created manually to feed values in ENC. It has
to be associated with a class.
'Global Variables' is not associated with a particular class. If a class
uses the same variable name and it is not overwritten by 'smart variable'
then 'Global Variable will be used.
My other question is that how to query foreman ENC directly from command
line ?
Thanks
Kashif

I believe that's right.

Not sure what you mean by command line, but you can use wget/curl and
