If you need information from the client, then you should think 'facter'.
Or you could write a custom fact, or use external facts.

Newbie question:
I need to be able to apply a specific template based on whether a
string is found in an
existing file on the client or not. I tried the following (found an
example somewhere... it does not work.. always falls into the first
condition)
What would be the correct way to check for the value in the file?
if "grep STANDARD /var/adm/buildIT/ServerBuild.dat 2>/dev/null"
{
file { '/etc/openssh/sshd_config':
ensure => file,
backup => false,
content => template("sshdconfig/sshdconfigsol.erb"),
notify => Service['ssh']
}
service { 'ssh':
ensure => running,
enable => true,
hasstatus => true,
hasrestart => true,
}
}
else
{
file { '/etc/openssh/sshd_config':
ensure => file,
backup => false,
content => template("sshdconfig/sshdconfigsolpm.erb"),
notify => Service['ssh']
}
service { 'ssh':
ensure => running,
enable => true,
hasstatus => true,
hasrestart => true,
}
}
