Question 1

Which approach ensures you can use Hiera data in a class but still allow overrides when calling that class?

A : Disallow parameter overrides entirely to maintain data purity

B : Mark class parameters with default lookup calls (e.g., lookup('some_key', ...)) but allow external overrides

C : Hardcode all parameters in the class so it’s not parameterized

D : Merge all data into node definitions ignoring the class parameters

Answer: B

Question 2

You see a module on Puppet Forge with a high “quality score” but contradictory user comments mentioning unaddressed bugs. How do you reconcile this discrepancy before deciding to adopt the module?

A : Investigate the bug reports, check the module’s issue tracker or repo commits for resolution attempts

B : Assume the user comments refer to an old version, and the quality score indicates it’s now fixed

C : Trust the quality score completely because user comments lack official review

D : Avoid the module entirely, because any negative comments mean it’s unsafe

Answer: A

Question 3

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 4

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 5

After an update, Puppet logs indicate “Evaluation Error: Unknown function.” Which root cause is likely?

A : The function call is valid, but puppet parser validate is misreading it

B : Environment locking prevents calling the function if the node classification changed

C : The built-in Puppet function was renamed in the latest version

D : A third-party module’s function was removed or not loaded in the current environment

Answer: D
