Managing services

Managing services is also available in Puppet Discovery, and gives us only two fields to use: Action and Name. Use these two fields to find a service on the machine and start, stop, or restart any services on the node. This is a convenient agent-free way to do some basic management of your infrastructure before introducing Puppet on each node.
