How to check chef boot strap on client

Hi all,

I have a chef client which had been bootstrap already. My plan was to bootstrap twice. first time i need to bootstrap the node with some bookbooks, then remove the bootstrap and do once again with different cookbook with diff chef server. is there any easy way of doing this.can some one suggest.

Thanks

You don't need to bootstrap twice, you need to supply an additional run_list item or change the run_list. Both of which are not a good idea. You should create your recipes to be idempotent. Which means that they eventually converge to the point where you want them to be. If you use only Chef Client resources, this will happen automatically.
