Issue #3741 has been updated by Mikael Fridh.
I had the same phenomenon until I moved the facter plugins to a subfolder in my modules: Example: mkdir modules/dell/lib/facter/dell mv modules/dell/lib/facter/*.rb module/dell/lib/facter/dell/ So, by keeping /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter clean of facter scripts and _only_ having them in subfolders, the redundant loading seems to not take place: # find /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/ /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/ /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/dell /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/dell/srvadminpkgcount.rb /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/dell/warranty.rb # puppet agent -vt info: Retrieving plugin info: Caching catalog for host info: Applying configuration version '1321570636' notice: Finished catalog run in 1.85 seconds puppet 2.6.6 facter 1.6.1 ---------------------------------------- Bug #3741: Custom facts loaded multiple times https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3741 Author: Dan Carley Status: Requires CLA to be signed Priority: Normal Assignee: Ash Caire Category: plug-ins Target version: Telly Affected Puppet version: 0.25.4 Keywords: Branch: As noted by some on puppet-users - http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/f41cad70f62b9bf7 Puppet clients indicate that they are loading each custom fact more than once. <pre> info: Loading facts in layman_conf info: Loading facts in portage_flags info: Loading facts in portage_keyword info: Loading facts in portage_profile info: Loading facts in raidtype [..] info: Loading facts in layman_conf info: Loading facts in portage_flags info: Loading facts in portage_keyword info: Loading facts in portage_profile info: Loading facts in raidtype [..] </pre> Some relevant settings from @puppet.conf@: <pre> vardir = /var/lib/puppet pluginsync = true factpath = $vardir/lib/facter </pre> Using versions: * Puppet 0.25.4 * Facter 1.5.2 -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
