It looks like this issue is fixed in recent versions of Facter. I think Amazon simply needs to update the version of Facter they make available to the AMI. I checked facter on amzn-ami-pv-2012.09.0.x86_64-ebs (ami-1624987f) and here's what I get: <pre> [ec2-user@ip-10-204-211-77] (master)(dirty)[██▁]~/src/facter $ bundle exec facter virtual xenu [ec2-user@ip-10-204-211-77] (master)(dirty)[██▁]~/src/facter $ bundle exec facter is_virtual true [ec2-user@ip-10-204-211-77] (master)(dirty)[██▁]~/src/facter $ git describe 1.6.17-467-g05f2519 </pre> I recommend working with Amazon and Canonical respectively to get more up to date packages in EC2. I also note that it's not trivial to install Puppet and Facter from our own repository using the Amazon 2012.09 AMI. -Jeff ---------------------------------------- Bug #14366: virtual => physical and is_virtual => false on EC2 https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14366#change-81681 Author: Kevin O'Connor Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: Jeff McCune Category: cloud - ec2 Target version: Keywords: Branch: Affected Facter version: 1.6.8 As described: [root@production-web-d95fb6bf ~]# facter | grep -i virtual ec2_profile => default-paravirtual is_virtual => false virtual => physical [root@production-web-d95fb6bf ~]# facter --version 1.6.8 [root@production-web-d95fb6bf ~]# cat /etc/*-release Amazon Linux AMI release 2012.03 is_virtual should be true, right? -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
