Description

Sometimes, we really don't want to have a configuration management software correcting each modification we are doing on a node, for example in the middle of a DDOS attack, or if the big boss want something right now or you are fired.

It would be handy to be able to enable/disable CFEngine agent for a group or a node from Rudder UI.

It is now possible to set the nodes on audit mode, which is better as it allows keeping visibility over what happens, and be able to regain control from the server afterwards.

We can now disable management for nodes,either from UI with node state, or from node with specific file presence.
