Attributes

byocm-chef::serialize

Key	Type	Description	Default
['byocm-chef']['rs_sketchy']	String	The Sketchy Hostname assigned by RightScale
['byocm-chef']['rs_instance_uuid']	String	The instance uuid assigned by RightScale

Usage

byocm-chef::serialize

Serialize is meant to be used on the RightScale ServerTemplate in the Boot runlist, before the chef::install_client recipe is run. This ensures that the serialized JSON file is in place for byocm-chef::deserialize to fetch before any chef-client converges might happen.

byocm-chef::deserialize

Meant to be run as the first thing in your roles runlist so that RightScale specific values are available to code run by chef-client against your own Chef server.
