OPTIONS

       Note  that  any  configuration  parameter  that´s  valid  in  the configuration file is also a valid long
       argument, although it may or may not be relevant to the present action. For example, server and  run_mode

       http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/configuration.html   for   the   full   list  of  acceptable
