Puppet users - Sep 2009 - Virtual recipe signals hardware nodes as 'openvz'

Hi,

Not sure this is the right place to report this.
On an OpenVZ HardwareNode, the ''virtual'' parameter given by
facter
says ''openvz''.
This is because the /proc/user_beancounters file also exists on the
hardware node.

This has some bad side-effects as a hardware node should, for example,
have a NTP configuration, where a container should not.

Regards,

Check the current Facter tickets - I am pretty sure this is a known issue.

This has been fixed already:
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/projects/facter/repository/revisions/6393e82e86def14891b204803aba156059736749

Facter 1.5.6 correctly reports "openvzhn" for Hardware Nodes (and
"openvzve" for containers).

True.
