The goal of the bootstrap +is to get Chef installed on the target system so it can run Chef Client +with a Chef Server. The main assumption is a baseline OS installation +exists. This sub-command is used internally by some cloud computing +plugins.</p> + +<p>The bootstrap sub-command supports supplying a template to perform the +bootstrap steps. If the distro is not specified (via <code>-d</code> or <code>--distro</code> +option), an Ubuntu 10.04 host bootstrapped with RubyGems is assumed. The +<strong>DISTRO</strong> value corresponds to the base filename of the template, in +other words <code>DISTRO</code>.erb. A template file can be specified with the +<code>--template-file</code> option in which case the <strong>DISTRO</strong> is not used. The +sub-command looks in the following locations for the template to use:</p> + +<ul> +<li><code>bootstrap</code> directory in the installed Chef Knife library.</li> +<li><code>bootstrap</code> directory in the <code>$PWD/.chef</code>.</li> +<li><code>bootstrap</code> directory in the users <code>$HOME/.chef</code>.</li> +</ul> + + +<p>The default bootstrap templates are scripts that get copied to the +target node (FQDN). The following distros are supported:</p> + +<ul> +<li>centos5-gems</li> +<li>fedora13-gems</li> +<li>ubuntu10.04-gems</li> +<li>ubuntu10.04-apt</li> +</ul> + + +<p>The gems installations will use RubyGems 1.3.6 and Chef installed as a +gem. The apt installation will use the Opscode APT repository.</p> + +<p>In addition to handling the software installation, these bootstrap +templates do the following:</p> + +<ul> +<li>Write the validation.pem per the local knife configuration.</li> +<li>Write a default config file for Chef (<code>/etc/chef/client.rb</code>) using values from the <code>knife.rb</code>.</li> +<li>Create a JSON attributes file containing the specified run list and run Chef.</li> +</ul> + + +<p>In the case of the RubyGems, the <code>client.rb</code> will be written from +scratch with a minimal set of values; see <strong>EXAMPLES</strong>. In the case of +APT Package installation, <code>client.rb</code> will have the +<code>validation_client_name</code> appended if it is not set to <code>chef-validator</code> +(default config value), and the <code>node_name</code> will be added if +<code>chef_node_name</code> option is specified.</p> + +<p>When this is complete, the bootstrapped node will have:</p> + +<ul> +<li>Latest Chef version installed from RubyGems or APT Packages from Opscode. This may be a later version than the local system.</li> +<li>Be validated with the configured Chef Server.</li> +<li>Have run Chef with its default run list if one is specfied.</li> +</ul> + + +<p>Additional custom bootstrap templates can be created and stored in +<code>.chef/bootstrap/DISTRO.erb</code>, replacing <strong>DISTRO</strong> with the value passed +with the <code>-d</code> or <code>--distro</code> option. See <strong>EXAMPLES</strong> for more +information.</p> + +<h2 id="EXAMPLES">EXAMPLES</h2> + +<p>Setting up a custom bootstrap is fairly straightforward. Create a +<code>.chef/bootstrap</code> directory in your Chef Repository or in +<code>$HOME/.chef/bootstrap</code>. Then create the ERB template file.</p> + +<pre><code>mkdir ~/.chef/bootstrap +vi ~/.chef/bootstrap/debian5.0-apt.erb +</code></pre> + +<p>For example, to create a new bootstrap template that should be used when +setting up a new Debian node. Edit the template to run the commands, set +up the validation certificate and the client configuration file, and +finally to run chef-client on completion. The bootstrap template can be +called with:</p> + +<pre><code>knife bootstrap mynode.example.com --template-file ~/.chef/bootstrap/debian5.0-apt.erb +</code></pre> + +<p>Or,</p> + +<pre><code>knife bootstrap mynode.example.com --distro debian5.0-apt +</code></pre> + +<p>The <code>--distro</code> parameter will automatically look in the +<code>~/.chef/bootstrap</code> directory for a file named <code>debian5.0-apt.erb</code>.</p> + +<p>Templates provided by the Chef installation are located in +<code>BASEDIR/lib/chef/knife/bootstrap/*.erb</code>, where <em>BASEDIR</em> is the +location where the package or Gem installed the Chef client libraries.</p> + +<h2 id="BUGS">BUGS</h2> + +<p><code>knife bootstrap</code> is not capable of bootstrapping multiple hosts in +parallel.</p> + +<p>The bootstrap script is passed as an argument to <span class="man-ref">sh<span class="s">(1)</span></span> on the remote +system, so sensitive information contained in the script will be visible +to other users via the process list using tools such as <span class="man-ref">ps<span class="s">(1)</span></span>.</p> + +<h2 id="SEE-ALSO">SEE ALSO</h2> + +<p> <strong>knife-ssh</strong>(1)</p> + +<h2 id="AUTHOR">AUTHOR</h2> + +<p> Chef was written by Adam Jacob <a href="mailto:adam@opscode.com" data-bare-link="true">adam@opscode.com</a> with many contributions from the community.</p> + +<h2 id="DOCUMENTATION">DOCUMENTATION</h2> + +<p> This manual page was written by Joshua Timberman <a href="mailto:joshua@opscode.com" data-bare-link="true">joshua@opscode.com</a>. + Permission is granted to copy, distribute and / or modify this document under the terms of the Apache 2.0 License.</p> + +<h2 id="CHEF">CHEF</h2> + +<p> Knife is distributed with Chef. <a href="http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Home" data-bare-link="true">http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Home</a></p> + + + <ol class='man-decor man-foot man foot'> + <li class='tl'>Chef 11.0.0.alpha</li> + <li class='tc'>September 2012</li> + <li class='tr'>knife-bootstrap(1)</li> + </ol> + + </div> +</body> +</html> |
