One way is to set the values in your client node.

Do a knife node edit and add the values chefserverip and chefserverhostname.

These will be accessible to all recipes.

You can also set recipe specific attributes.

For example i have a recipe:

# Creating true /etc/hosts
template "/etc/hosts" do
    mode 0644
    owner "root"
    group "root"
    source "etc/hosts.erb"
    variables ({
                :ip => node[:dc][:ip],
                :domain => node[:dns][:domain],
                :hostname => node[:dc][:hostname],
                :chefserverip => ???????????????,
                :chefserverhostname => ???????????????
                })
    action :create
end


and template:

127.0.0.1           localhost
<%= @chefserverip %>           <%= @chefserverhostname %>.<%= @domain %>
<%= @ip %>        <%= @hostname %>.<%= @domain %> <%= @hostname %>
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

This is not true way. I think this vars must be present by default in chef runtime.

Set vars in node, environment, data bag, etc - is not true.
