Issue #15791 has been updated by Matthaus Owens.
Released in Puppet 3.2.0-rc1 ---------------------------------------- Bug #15791: a single call to fqdn_rand cause future random data to be deterministic https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/15791#change-89541 * Author: R.I. Pienaar * Status: Closed * Priority: High * Assignee: * Category: functions * Target version: 3.2.0 * Affected Puppet version: 3.0.2 * Keywords: * Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/1539 ---------------------------------------- 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.
