You can fake interation. "$name" is a free variable for whatever you're
passing in. I have NOT tested this, but it might look something like this:
define my_mounts {
mount { "/home/$name":
>
> device => "our-thumper.domain.com:/export/$name",
atboot => yes,
fstype => "nfs",
options => "tcp,hard,intr,rw,bg",
name => "/home/$name",
ensure => mounted,
remounts => true,
pass => "0",
require => File["/home/$name"],
}
>

}
Then call it with:
my_mounts { $mounts: }
