Comment 1 Marek Hulan 2016-01-05 05:22:02 EST

This was caused by wrong default value of policies puppet parameter. During previous failed saves it got wrongly escaped, a lot of \\\\" were part of the value. The solution was to change default value but the problem is that if we changed only default value, the record was not saved. A workaround was to change type as well (array to string), then the default value change was picked. After the save we reverted type back.
