Hi Josh, As you may recall, I'm the odd kid on the block using Puppet to manage many many embedded Windows 7 and XP devices, so my needs are probably not very representative of the Puppet community. I have no need for a reboot message/code. Most our devices already have a nightly scheduled reboot. I use run stages and a delayed shutdown to, for all practical purposes, ensure a resource that requires a reboot runs last and give the agent enough time to cleanly finish the run and send reports back. I also use a schedule resource to control when devices are allowed to apply a resource that requires a reboot.
I'll check out your reboot provider, thanks. I just use an exec currently.
