[chef] Re: Re: Attach an ec2 instance on the existing ELB

[Chandan Maheshwari < >]

Thanks Mike for your prompt response.

I was just looking on the same cookbook and wrote once recipe(to register my ec2 instance), but it gave me error
Suppose,

my ELB is NAME

cookbook having recipe to register instance is cookbook_name

FATAL: RightAws::AwsError: aws_elastic_lb[NAME] (cookbook_name::register line 3) had an error: RightAws::AwsError: ValidationError: ELB in VPC is not supported in this version of API. Please try 2011-11-15 or newer.

Chandan,

You might want to look at the aws cookbook:
http://community.opscode.com/cookbooks/aws

For example, to register the node in the 'QA' ELB:

aws_elastic_lb "elb_qa" do
  aws_access_key aws['aws_access_key_id']
  aws_secret_access_key aws['aws_secret_access_key']
  name "QA"
  action :register
end
