I've been attempting to use facts of a node to contribute to the lookup of the host in the ENC. In my ENC I've tried both shelling out and running `puppet facts find example.com --terminus yaml` and also loading the yaml from '/var/lib/puppet/yaml/facts/'. However on the first run this file does not exist. Also if I change the terminus to puppetdb the facts are also not present yet in puppetdb. This looks like an ordering issue. If I run the same ENC with puppet 2.7 then the yaml file is present in '/var/lib/puppet/yaml/facts/'. With Puppet 3.8 the fact yaml file only appears after the ENC has run. Has anyone else come across this issue? I'm not sure if this is by design or if this is an ordering issue. In my opinion the facts should be written to yaml cache and puppetdb before the ENC is executed. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
