* Compile the resource collection
The chef-client identifies each resource in the node object and builds
the resource collection. All libraries are loaded (to ensure that all
language extensions and Ruby classes are available). And then all
attributes are loaded. And then all lightweight resources are loaded.
And then all definitions are loaded (to ensure that any
pseudo-resources are available). Finally, all recipes are loaded in
the order specified by the expanded run-list; each action specified in
each recipe is identified before any Ruby code within a recipe is
evaluated.
* Converge the node
The chef-client configures the system based on the information that
has been collected. Each resource is executed in the order identified
by the run-list, and then by the order in which each resource is
listed in each recipe. Each resource in the resource collection is
mapped to a provider. The provider examines the node, and then does
the steps necessary to complete the action. And then the next resource
is processed. Each action configures a specific part of the system.
This process is also referred to as convergence.
Run the ShellOut code during convergence after the LDAP code has
converged (instead of at compile time as your example inaccurately
attempts to represent mine)
YMMV
