Chef-roles

Hi,

As wiki says we could apply roles list on the node through the “run_list”. Also I see that node has attribute “roles”. Question: how does roles from run_list moving to this attribute?

Chef server and client version is 0.10.10.

Thanks for help!

Best regards

node.roles - is the expanded list of all roles applied to the node
node.run_list.roles - is the list of roles defined for the run_list

for example

roles/foo.rb

run_list("role[bar]")

knife node run_list add node1 'role[foo]'

knife node show node1 -a roles

foo
bar

knife node show node1 -a run_list.roles

foo

It's strange, after all this steps I see that my run_list contain role, but "roles" still hasn't any role. Any suggestions?

are you sure your node has been saved and indexed correctly ? have you
tried to rebuild index ?

Yes, I have. But still no luck.

➜ knife role from file foo.rb
Updated Role foo!
➜
➜
➜ roles git:(stable) ✗ knife node run_list add testing 'role[foo]'
run_list: role[foo]
➜ roles git:(stable) ✗ knife node show testing -a run_list.roles
run_list.roles: foo
➜ roles git:(stable) ✗ knife node show testing -a roles
roles:
➜ roles git:(stable) ✗ knife node show testing
Node Name: testing
Environment: _default
FQDN:
IP: 192.168.6.55
Run List: role[foo]
Roles:
Recipes:
Platform: centos 6.2

I want to put role 'foo' to 'roles' attribute too. What I should to do?

Converge the node in question. recipes and roles come from the actual
list of executed roles/recipes, which requires a node convergence.

Thanks a lot Adam.
I have created simple recipe, and after successful chef-run i got attributes 'roles' and 'recipes' filed.

Thanks everyone for help.
