Checking into where this is going wrong -- Avi if you have access to this virtualization environment can you help out? There's something in facter/util/virtual.rb that looks at the various paths and is guessing wrong. ---------------------------------------- Feature #16278: Add support for Oracle VM detection https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16278#change-71559 Author: Ken Johnson Status: Accepted Priority: High Assignee: eric sorenson Category: Target version: Keywords: Branch: Affected Facter version: Currently guests under Oracle VM Server are detected as physical machines and return false for the is_virtual fact. A customer has asked us to put in a feature request to add support for detecting this virtual environment properly. Some additional details about the environment the customer is running are below: "To be specific, where this needs improvement is when using Oracle Linux 5.8 on top of Xen PVM VMs on Oracle VM Server for x86. In Oracle Linux 5.8, the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel becomes the default and it bakes Xen support into the kernel rather than having a separate kernel. We did some additional testing this morning and it looks like we do not see this issue with the Red Hat compatible “-xen” kernel." Some sample output for the relevant facts on their test VM: [root@racvm0 ~]# facter is_virtual false [root@racvm0 ~]# facter virtual physical [root@racvm0 ~]# uname -r 2.6.39-200.29.3.el5uek -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
