Does the user who initiates the auto provisioning have "view_params" permission?
If you start foreman-rake console and type:
Host.find(ID).host_param('param_name')
for the already provisioned host, do you get the expected result there?
Can you comment out line "return cached_host_params unless
cached_host_params.blank?" in host_params.rb and see if it helps?
