Hi,
I''ve got a question regarding a fact. I''m trying to use the
''is_virtual'' fact in a class manifest:
class io_scheduler {
if $is_virtual {
file { "/etc/default/grub":
owner => "root",
group => "root",
mode => 0644,
source => "puppet:///modules/io_scheduler/etc/default/grub",
}
}
}
However, on one of my physical systems:
$ facter | grep is_virtual
is_virtual => false
The file mentioned above gets installed:
Nov 23 14:22:50 hostname puppet-agent[1838]:
(/Stage[main]/Io_scheduler::Config/File[/etc/default/grub]/content)
content changed ''{md5}01de0bd1b00e2ca04ebb873ace6f20fe'' to
''{md5}a882618adcb31667cbab22731f8f16e2''
Any ideas what is wrong here?
Thanks for the help!
