That combination is wrong if you do not in fact intend for Puppet to reboot
the machine on every run. The problem is that Exec["
purge_linux-image-2.6.32-38-server"] runs its command every time, and any
time an Exec runs its command is considered a change (thus triggering
subscribers to refresh). You can avoid that by setting an appropriate
command in the 'onlyif' or 'unless' parameter of that Exec; these plus
'creates' are how an Exec determines whether it is already in sync.
