Pull request https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/1349 Please also merge it into 3.0.x ---------------------------------------- Bug #15791: a single call to fqdn_rand cause future random data to be deterministic https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/15791#change-79482 Author: R.I. Pienaar Status: Accepted Priority: High Assignee: Category: Target version: 3.x Affected Puppet version: 3.0.2 Keywords: Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/1349 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.
