[chef] Re: nodes, roles and recipes

Hi Kelly - you need to set the interval in the /etc/chef/client.rb file or from the command line when you start the daemon (most likely, /etc/chef/client.rb is what you want.)

Best,

Hi,

I created a role, a node and added the chef-client recipe to this role and then added the role to the node. So far, so good. Now, I would like that for a particular node that has this role the chef client run interval to be different then 30min. How can I do this? As of now, my node configuration looks like this:

 {

  "normal": {

    "tags": [

    ]

  },

  "name": "mee13",

  "chef_environment": "_default",

  "run_list": [

    "role[developer]"

  ]

}

I added 

 {

  "normal": {

    "tags": [

    ]

  },

  "name": "mee13",

  "chef_environment": "_default",

  "chef_client": {

      "interval": 5

   },

  "run_list": [

    "role[developer]"

  ]

}

But the node config was not updated. What is wrong?

Thanks 

Kelly
