Issue #6635 has been updated by Thomas Guthmann.
Just a reminder, puppet works well when executed in shell but it's doing crap
as a daemon. So the test you are asking me to may be irrelevant because I
execute facter in a shell. See the esults below, they are the same as expected.
**However** I don't have /proc/vz/version that may be the reason (we are using
Virtuozzo 4.0 not OpenVZ)
[root@serverX:~]# facter -p virtual ls -lA /proc/vz
/usr/bin/facter: invalid option -- l
[root@serverX:~]# facter -p virtual ; ls -lA /proc/vz

Bug #6635: Facter 1.5.8 seems to not work properly when triggered by the puppet
daemon but works fine when used with puppetd -t

Hi,
Since we upgraded to facter 1.5.8 we had a weird behaviour with puppet. It
seems that in our case $virtual is not set properly (due to environment
variables not set ?). For instance the following logic works fine if we execute
puppetd -t from a shell on a 'openvzve' node however in the background we can
see in the logs of this node that puppet is trying to install ntp and ipmi but
it should not. So it seems that $virtual is not set because it does not enter
any of the other $virtual conditions.
Notes:
- Facter 1.5.7 works fine and does not have this issue. We rollback to this
version to have the correct behaviour again. (homebrew RPM)
- Facter 1.5.8 was a RPM from RPMFORGE
(http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/i386/rpmforge/RPMS/facter-1.5.8-1.el5.rf.noarch.rpm)
- Puppet 2.6.2 (homebrew RPM)
- Centos 5.5 i386
Code:

# If it is a VE #

###########################################################
else {

###################

if ( $virtual == "vmware" ) {

############################

else {
# physical only aka real HW or Virtuozzo HW node
include ipmi
# If the hardware is DELL install openmange
if ( $manufacturer == "Dell Inc." ) {
include openmanage
}
# If this is a VZ hardware node
if ( $virtual == "openvzhn" ) {
include virtuozzo
}
}
}
