The standard way to avoid this is to set up execd (or cron) to run the command
cf-agent -f failsafe.cf && cf-agent
which is the default. This gives you the control you need without sacrificing
any options. Simple and effective, so it is not a flaw of convergence, just an
option.
An alternative solution is not to forget that you can tie promises together, by
defining a class on update using
classes => if_repaired("got_something")
and then
got_something::
# Promise something else
In this case, you are best off with the first option though.
