+NAME
+----
+cdist-type__cdistmarker - Add a timestamped cdist marker.
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+This type is used to add a common marker file which indicates that a given
+machine is being managed by cdist. The contents of this file consist of a
+timestamp, which can be used to determine the most recent time at which cdist
+was run against the machine in question.
+
+
+REQUIRED PARAMETERS
+-------------------
+None.
+
+
+OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
+-------------------
+destination::
+    The path and filename of the marker.
+    Default: /etc/cdist-configured
+
+format::
+    The format of the timestamp. This is passed directly to system 'date'.
+    Default: -u
+
+
+EXAMPLES
+--------
+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+# Creates the marker as normal.
+__cdistmarker
+
+# Creates the marker differently.
+__cdistmarker --file /tmp/cdist_marker --format '+%s'
