Hi Ajeet, Instead of using puppet for these steps, I would recommend the native package management for your operating system, then use puppet to distribute and maintain versions. For instance, RPM was designed to do all the things you require, as well as dealing with changes to the application files themselves, contained in the .zip you are working with. If any incremental changes are required, such as a minor point release upgrade, it may be difficult to deal with using puppet alone. You can also create an in-house repository to distribute an RPM.
