Description

Ran into a situation where someone deleted the pxe/macfile from tftpserver. This allowed server to use default pxe file that says to boot into discovery image. When discovery image boots, it should check if ip/mac already exists in host table, and if so, don't add into discovered_hosts table. When this occurs and I remove the entry from discovered_hosts, the existing host entry loses its FACTs information.
