I've use the attribute move_osbtructions of the promise type files:

The note about this attribute in the CFE3 Reference Manual is:

If we have promised to make file X a link, but it already exists as a file, or vice-versa, or if a file is blocking the creation of a directory etc, then normally CFEngine will report an error. If this is set, existing objects will be moved aside to allow the system to heal without intervention. Files and directories are saved/renamed, but symbolic links are deleted.
