Description

Storing lots of fact and/or report data can quickly go out of control and our research shows that not everyone uses these Foreman features. We would like to make fact and report data storing in Foreman database opt-in via Administer setting. For new installations this will be turned off.

As part of this feature, we will modify "empty" page for Facts and Reports to ask users to enable the setting if they want to start gathering data.

For existing installations, Foreman will either keep collecting data (if there are any) or switch it off by default. It hasn't been decided yet.
