Hello,
We manage VMs (KVM on RHEL) via Foreman. That means that I foreman knows
which VM runs on which Bare Metal host. I can see that by looking at the
compute resources screen on the web interface.
What I'd like to know is if I can als use this information in puppet
itself. I would like to use the name of the bare metal host a VM runs on in
a puppet manifest I run on a virtual machine. Is there a way?
Thanks in advance,

goto global parameters and add a new parameter e.g. compute, its value
would be :
<%= @host.compute_resource.try(:to_label) || 'Bare Metal' %>
as an example, you can use this motd erb template:
This host belongs to the <%= organization rescue 'None' %> organization,
its role is <%= hostgroup rescue 'unknown' %>, its located at <%=
location rescue 'unknown' %> and owned by <%= owner_name %> (<%=
owner_email %>)
<% if compute -%>
Running on <%= compute %>
<% end -%>
You might need to turn off safe mode rendering.
hope this helps,
Ohad

When I do this everything breaks…
I get a "Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on
SERVER:". In order to find out why I ran node.rb by hand and got:
Error retrieving node <nodename>: Net::HTTPPreconditionFailed
This looked promissing, but didn't work…

What's the error in foreman logs, IMHO you need to turn off safe mode
rendering in settings.

There is no error in the log file, and AFAIK turning off safe mode hasn't
been necessary for the last few release…

for this snippet to work you need to turn off safe rendering.
