I am not quite sure what you mean, but the standard failsafe.cf,
update.cfautomatically transfers files from the policy server when
required. If there
is a change in a file in eg /var/cfengine/inputs, then line 12 in
inputs.cfbelow kicks in and transfers the required files from
policyserver:/export/cfengine/master
into /var/cfengine/inputs on the clent. Is this what you are looking for?
