I meant if someone goes and install a different java manualy (not through a chef run) can that be detected ?

Haven't done it yet, but the report handler can tell you what are the resources that were updated in the chef run. The chef-run will bring back to java6 in your case and will show up in the report.

Let say I install Java 6 on a node using chef, 

if someone goes and install java 7 on it, can chef alert me and tell me?

or is there a tool on the top of Chef that can help me do that?
