It sounds like resource purging, meaning that Puppet will purge any resources found that are not under Puppet control. You don't mention if you use a Forge module to manage hosts, or something home grown - if you're using something like https://forge.puppet.com/ghoneycutt/hosts then you'll need to set (or unset) the "purge_hosts" option. Otherwise, you might have something like this declared.... resources { 'hosts': purge => true } Either way, it should be easy enough to change the behaviour but without knowing what module you are using I can't really tell you exactly how.
