Issue #15791 has been updated by eric sorenson. Status changed from Unreviewed to Accepted Target version set to 3.x
Yes this seems less than great. targeting for 3.x ---------------------------------------- Bug #15791: a single call to fqdn_rand cause future random data to be deterministic https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/15791#change-69269 Author: R.I. Pienaar Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: 3.x Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: The fqdn_rand function sets a random seed based on the hostname of the current node in order to get a consistant random number between compiles. Unfortunately it does not reset the seed which means all further calls to rand() will also become deterministic between runs.
