You do not run any services on the hn that you run on the ve's.

I know we should not run any real services on the HN, but I still need to monitor/configure it. For example, crond works perfectly on the HN and when I do a 'service crond stop' on the HN, it only stops the instance on the HN, not in the VEs.

I don't know how the puppet daemon works but i presume it works as a client-server (as far as i understood from their wiki), so you run the master on the hn and the clients on the ve's.
That should not pose any problems. Again if i understood correctly how puppet works.

There is no problem running puppet on the HN, except for this problem. Well, the service tests on the HN are not done correctly, because if you tell puppet to make sure crond runs on the HN, it will say it is running even if it is not, because it sees all the VE's instances. I'll try monitoring the HN with nagios instead, but I'll still be configuring the HN with puppet.
Thanks,
