[chef] RE: Re: Clusters?

That’s what I did, but I added a new item in my data bag, and checked for 
it's presence if the search yielded 0 results...

Is that what you are doing (ie modifying the recipes)?

Thanks.

We track these in data bags, which is a bit manual, but the IPs are long 
lived so it's not much of a hassle. Then, for anything that we configure to 
talk to them, they access the VIP out of the data bag.
