We have NFS mounts that aren't readable by root, which is the user that the puppet agent runs as. The

sce_mount_info

fact causes this error output on every puppet run:

Error: Facter: Error while resolving custom fact fact='sce_mount_info', resolution='<anonymous>': Permission denied @ dir_initialize - /mnt/my_nfs_mountpoint

• Is this a known bug, or should I make a Support ticket for this? • The

sce_mount_info

fact only looks at

/etc/fstab

, which doesn't cover mounted filesystems that aren't in

/etc/fstab

, like autofs automounted filesystems. • Most of the data in

sce_mount_info

already exists in the core facts

mountpoints

and

partitions

. Wouldn't it make more sense to extend those than create a new fact for SCE?

This is new to us, it would be great if you can create a support ticket for it.
