[chef] RE: Re: RE: Re: knife node shows empty role

Hi Julian

Yes, I did execute the client run on the respective node. The output is after 
the successful execution of command.

'role[mongodb]' is the output of command.

The roles attribute is only updated after a successful Chef Client run as it 
reflects the current state of the node. Did you run Chef between commands one 
and two?

Also, I believe you just need "knife node show xxxx -a roles" - don't need 
the 'role[mongodb]' in there.
