My instructions for setting up the repo and such for Dell OpenManage

It turns out the .cgi file has some cumbersome logic in it to
determine OS and so forth - more so than I want to implement in a
module.
So my question is - what's the proper way to apply this exec only
once? I've used the 'depend on changes to a dummy file' to limit
execs
in the past but this seems like a real kludge.
Similarly - what's a better way to run this command (or achieve the
same end result)?
There are Dell OMSA puppet modules out there, though as typical they
have their pros and cons. If you want go down the route of using an Exec
to execute the bootstrap script rather than using a module I would say
the only real way to keep it from executing more than once is to setup
an onlyif that checks for the existence of a file or directory that the
script generates and signifies that it was successfully installed.
