We are delighted to announce release 0.6.64 of Chef Automate. The release is available for download from https://downloads.chef.io/automate.
New Feature: Chef Automate Pre-flight check
As part of the enhancements to improve Chef automate installation experience, a new optional command (automate-ctl preflight-check) is now available. You can now validate that a server meets the installation requirements of Chef Automate by running automate-ctl preflight-check. The command will check the target environment against installation requirements and advises if additional resources or adjustments are needed.
Resources validated includes: Memory, CPU, target directory structure, target directory disk space, umask, port access, and availability of SSH client.
Additional details on the command can be found at:
