Issue #3926 has been updated by James Turnbull. Category set to library Status changed from Unreviewed to Needs design decision
Hmmm this probably won't help with all OSes. Think this needs more thought. ---------------------------------------- Bug #3926: uniqueid not unique enough http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3926 Author: Greg Maples Status: Needs design decision Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: library Target version: Affected version: 0.25.4 Keywords: Branch: basing it on hostid is not nearly unique enough especially in a xen environment with duplicated machines and multiple instances of IPs and MACs. I'd suggest something like serial number from BIOS (works for dell, hp, ibm, etc - significant portion of all x86 machines) modified by the system time when facter was initially installed. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
