You could try:
tee /path/to/where-I-want-logfile-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).log
Alternatively, since it doesn't look like you're using any puppet
variables in the command string, you could try using single quotes
(i.e. restart => '/path/ ...') so puppet won't try to interpret anything
it sees in there.
Best,
