I removed my call to strip(), and somehow the old buggy facts still appear:
The custom fact that generates extra custom facts: bash-3.00# cat /var/opt/csw/puppet/lib/facter/host_facts.rb if File.exists?('/GU/facts.txt') File.open('/GU/facts.txt').each do |line| var = nil value = nil var = $1 and val = $2 if line =~ /^(.+)=(.+)$/ if var != nil && val != nil Facter.add(var) do setcode { val } end end end end bash-3.00# cat /GU/facts.txt gu_environment=unset gu_app_oracle_rac=unset gu_app_oracle_oem=unset gu_app_gdoc=unset gu_app_banner=unset gu_app_bboard=unset the buggy facts: bash-3.00# cat /etc/mcollective/facts.yaml|grep gu_ "gu_app_bboard ": unset gu_app_oracle_rac: unset gu_app_gdoc: unset "gu_app_oracle_oem ": unset gu_app_banner: unset "gu_environment ": unset Any pointers highly appreciated. Thanks.
