I looked into Puppet and though I've got it managing parts of our infrastructure it seems quite difficult to bolt on to an existing setup. There are also some things that I can't see how to do easily with Puppet ("Don't upgrade packages on the live environment until we've tested them in staging" being a big one.)
Has anyone mentioned cluster ssh yet? Depending on your scale, cluster ssh and a "really big screen" may be a suitable way to manage N servers and do things like apply updates or make identical changes to all at once (or in groups). It also gives you the flexibility to apply commands to all or single out a system and do things just in the one window, then to back to talking to all.
