[chef] Re: Re: Is there a resource to bootstrap a provisioned machine

Peter,

I'll try that - was really hoping for something that came with ChefDK.

I guess this isnt a mainstream scenario?   It seemed natural to want to use one approach for both pre-provisioned and to-be-provisioned machines.

Hi,

I'd like to be able to bootstrap an arbitrary existing machine with a chef-provisioning recipe (replacing knife bootstrap). I know I can used 'chef_node' to set node attributes (but this wont do a bootstrap), and I can use 'machine' with 'converge_only' to do convergence (but this requires specifying a specific driver like vagrant or aws). Is there a way to do what I want?

Regards,

Christine
