Indeed, in my case I am tearing down the entire cluster.  This includes:

- vms
- the hyperv cluster
- storage associations
- access lists on the storage servers
- returning ip addresses to a pool
- dns records
- logic network definitions
- servers
- server raid configs
- server razor properties for PXE booting

and it supports combinations of above say cluster stays but server goes etc

its complex so for just VMs sure, but I'm dealing with the entire stack from PXE
boot onward including BIOS settings and firmware.  All via Puppet. Chances of 
every
single thing of this tearing down perfectly in every case is zero so we just 
want
to keep going and nuke as much as possible - which while I realize this sounds 
idiotic
is fine in this case.  The manifests are constructed dynamically by our 
orchestrator
so they are one-offs

I believe PL is implementing a new Hiera which would include the module-data 
behaviours

Though I did have a pull request from someone who fixed some Puppet 4 stuff so 
maybe
try master
