Can you use $(($RANDOM/20)) between single quotes?
Kind regards,

Not in a bash shell, but these quotes aren't used in that context AIUI.

Right, in puppet, using single quotes keeps puppet itself from trying to expand the variables. That way, the command you want gets passed to the shell. Knowing next to nothing about infra's puppet setup, the change looks sane to me -- double quotes would surely be broken. :)
