Try creating an any:: version of the variable first and make that one 
overridable.

Overridable helps provided that this is set for all instances of the 
variable.  Example:

     5  bundle agent report_services{
     6 
     7      vars:
     8 
     9          redhat::
    10  # List this variable first as the default.
    11              "services" slist => {
    12                  "anacron",
    13                  "apmd",
    14                  "arptables_jf",
    15                  "autofs",
    16                  "cpuspeed",
    17                  "cups",
    18                  "gpm",
    19                  "iptables",
    20                  "isdn",
    21                  "microcode_ctl",
    22                  "netfs",
    23                  "pcmcia",
    24                  "readahead_early",
    25                  "readahead_later",
    26                  "rpcgssd",
    27                  "rpcidmapd",
    28                  "rpcsvcgssd",
    29                  "sendmail",

    35              policy => "overridable",
    36              comment => "Check status of these on all rhel hosts by 
default";
    37 
    38          unxxhd01::
    39              "services" slist => {
    40                  "xfs",

    42                  "autofs"
