How to increase the log level to debug on Puppet agent?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • How can I configure Puppet to log the same level of detail during automatic agent check-ins as it does when running Puppet agent -t manually?
  • Increase the log level for the Puppet agent service to learn when each plugin, file, fact, and resource is read and executed to troubleshoot issues with plugins, resource timeouts, unintended changes to files, or Puppet agent completing operations in an unexpected order.

Environment

  • Red Hat Satellite 6.
  • Puppet agent.
