Then, Puppet + ControlTier is a pretty safe bet. If you want to do it all Puppet then you'll need to figure out how to do cross-system semaphores or something like that.
Alternatively, you can just re-write your app initialization scripts to check for the resources themselves. This was what I generally did back in the early 90's with great success. This way all of your systems are self controlled instead of relying on an external brain. Then you could do everything with Puppet again.
