Howto use opscode chef

[Jonas Colmsjo]

I noticed that opscode chef seams to the way forward when you want to configure a new role?

I have a bunch of questions:

* Is there any guide on howto get started with chef when using scalr?

* I see that I need to add a URL to a chef server in Roles->Chef Servers.

 - Do I need to setup a chef server of my own? 

 - Can I use a chef trail account from opscode (just to learn how this works)?

* Is scalr using chef internally? I see that the command line chef clients shef and knife already is installed.

* If yes, is there a risk that I break something when using chef?

All guidance is greatly appreciated.

/Thanks

Hi Jonas,

Initial feature announcement blog post provides some instructions: http://blog.scalr.net/announcements/scalr-now-with-chef/

At this moment, you can only specify your Chef server. I believe you can use trial account from opscode.

Scalr uses Chef to build roles with Role Builder, it doesn't interfere with this feature so you won't break anything.

Regards,

Nick
