James, Not yet, see http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/19162. My (ugly) approach for this now is a refreshonly exec with a delayed shutdown. I'd like to see a reboot => true or such for all resources that tell the agent to reboot after a run is complete when that resource is applied. Adam

I use the same small script to bootstrap puppet on any server whether it's EC2 or not. It 1) sets the hostname 2) installs puppet 3) sets the puppet master in puppet.conf 4) runs puppet I sign the cert and from that point on use an ENC (I like Foreman) to add classes, set environments, parameters

[Puppet Users] Applying a resource only if not within a schedule

I have a custom resource type that upgrades a MSI and kicks off a reboot. It uses a schedule parameter (configurable through an ENC) so we can control when the node is allowed to reboot. I'd like to add a notify (or call warn()) if not within the schedule, e.g. "Skipping ensure version of MSI

Jeff, Just to give you more ideas, and as someone who tends to reinvint wheels, what I do for this sort of thing on Windows is make custom types and use Ruby to handle download, unzip, md5, etc. Here's how a couple custom types I use look in a Puppet manifest: media_player_msi { 'ensure_ms
