Do you number your jboss instances like above? If so, why not have:
3rdparty-thing { "thingy":
before => "jboss-inst0"
}
service { "jboss-inst0":
before => "jboss-inst1"
}
service { "jboss-inst1":
before => "jboss-inst2"
}
...
service { "jboss-instn":
before => "jboss-inst(n+1)"
}
Then have a "terminator" of sorts (which could be in another define):
service { "jboss-inst(n+1)":
ensure => absent
}
You can do arithmetic with variables, so maybe there's a way to do this?
I don't know the details of your situation, but hopefully this either helps or
spurs another idea.
Cheers,
Eric
