Hi,
this is in fact not the right approach.
Facts are evaluated on the agent side, while hiera typically belongs to
the master side only.
If you want to use $clustername instead of hiera("clustername"), just
add this to the global scope of your manifest:
$clustername = hiera("clustername")
HTH,
Felix
