I am experiencing a strange behaviour in the search feature of chef

server: I have a role called zookeeper and an attribute in a cookbook

like this

default['app']['zookeeper']['role'] = "zookeeper". One server is using

zookeeper role and another one is using the cookbook that contains

that attribute.

When I search the node data bag with "role:zookeeper" query the result

contains both servers. I would like to know if this is a bug or a

feature. I am using chef 11.

Thanks,

Feature. Munging the data in this way is one of chef-expander's two tasks (the other is to provider a buffer so Solr commits don't block API requests).
