There's a neat tool called Blueprint that may work for you: https://github.com/devstructure/blueprint It currently supports shell, Puppet, and Chef but I doubt cfengine support would be too hard. At least the shell blueprint can be used in your scenario to bring the machine back to its previous state, and then cfengine can converge at will.
