Another alternative is to unconditionally copy the file to a staging
director (e.g. /var/staging) and then have
exec {
"conditional copy to path1":
onlyif => "test -d /opt/path1"
command => "rsync -a /var/staging/file.txt /opt/path1";
"conditional copy to path2":
onlyif => "test -d /opt/path2"
command => "rsync -a /var/staging/file.txt /opt/path2";
"conditional copy to path3":
onlyif => "test -d /opt/path3"
command => "rsync -a /var/staging/file.txt /opt/path3";
}
For neatness' sake, you could turn that into a define{}
