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.
