Facter, as was already pointed out, and the option of exported and imported
resources if you have storeconfig enabled. However...

...this is not something that puppet is really designed to do, as far as I am
aware. So, it doesn't really offer many tools to support this sort of
discovery.
I tend to use 'noop' on the specific resource and 'puppetd --test' on the
servers, or to use our ad-hoc change tools to fetch the appropriate files back
to my central system for me.
