Title: Re: [chef] Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: RE: RE: knife winrm roles

How can I get Ohai to set the fqdn without doing a chef client run?  I want to upload the nodes to chef and then do a chef client run against the role/environment that the nodes are set to.  But I can't do this without doing at least on chef client run to set the fqdn.  How have people gotten around this?  Do I need the recipe to put a file down and if that file is found do the full recipe and if it is not do nothing so the fqdn gets set by Ohai?

Thanks for all the help everyone,
Will

That explains why knife winrm is reporting no results. (see
http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-2847)  Typically the fqdn
should be set by Ohai during the Chef client run.
