Chef-Client Recipes
Now let's perform a Chef run adding two recipes to the run-list we touched on in
Chef-Client
1.
chef-client::default
recipe—Configures
chef-client
to run as a service
2.
chef-client::delete_validation
recipe—Deletes the
/etc/chef/validation.pem
file
Use
knife node run_list add
to add the
chef-client::delete_validation
recipe to
the node's run list. For all
knife
command lines, recipes are referenced in a run list in the
form
"recipe[<cookbook>::<recipe>]"
; for example,
"recipe[chef-cli-
ent::delete_validation]"
.
Run the following
knife node run_list add
command to add
"recipe[chef-cli-
ent::delete_validation]"
to the
node-centos65.vagrantup.com
node's run list that we
bootstrapped in
Chapter 9
:
$
knife node run_list add node-centos65.vagrantup.com \
"recipe[chef-client::delete_validation]"
node-centos65.vagrantup.com:
run_list: recipe[chef-client::delete_validation]
NOTE
If you need a reminder of what the node name is, run the following command:
$ knife node list
node-centos65.vagrantup.com
Also add the
chef-client::default
recipe to the run list. Note that you can use a short-
hand notation using just the cookbook name, when you want to use the
default
recipe. Run
the following command now:
