Hi,
I figured that out and did the changes to verify. However it doesn't parse
the hierarchy to override the values. I did a quick test to only use the
operatingsystem fact in hierarchy. It doesnt pickup the value from it
also. Even though the machine is CentOS. I dont know if hiera 0.3.0 works
with ruby1.9.3
Regards,
Kevin
