The "Manage puppet groups" interface lets you define what's available to
use in "configure" action for instances in the "Manage instances" interface.

So, if you wanted to set "ircecho_infile", you should check if it's already
available to be set in the configure interface. If not, you could go to the
puppet group interface, add it as a variable, then it'll appear in the
configure interface. At that point you can set the value, save, and when
you run puppet locally it'll work.
