Puppet will, by design, apply classes in a random order. To specify the order,
you want to use the "require" parameter.
exec { "echoone":
command => "/bin/echo $var1",
}
exec { "echotwo":
command => "/bin/echo $var2",
require => Exec['echoone'],
}
exec { "echothree":
command => "/bin/echo $var3",
require => Exec['echotwo'],
}
Stages are for when you want something to run before (or after) everything else.
