Chef Workstation v0.13.35

https://downloads.chef.io/chef-workstation/0.13.35

New Features

  • chef analyze tool released, including functionality for chef analyze report and chef analyze upload.
  • chef analyze upload allows users to upload documents to a secure repo for Chef Software to examine. Reports and error logs are a perfect example of what to upload. Your Chef Software contact can help you determine what to upload.
  • chef analyze report nodes and chef analyze report cookbooks generate reports based on a Chef Infra Server instance.
    • These reports depend on connection information to the Chef Infra Server. The easiest way is to specify these in a $HOME/.chef/credentials file like the following:
    [default]
    client_name     = 'chef-workstation'
    # client_key must be a fully specified path
    client_key      = '/Users/myuser/.chef/chef-workstation.pem'
    chef_server_url = 'https://my.chef.server/organizations/gtms'
    
    • If your chef server uses a self-signed or untrusted certificate you can specify --ssl-no-verify to allow connections.
    • Once the command completes a detailed version of the report generated on stdout will be stored to ~/.chef-workstation. A message at the end of the report will give a direct link. Any errors encountered will also be stored in that folder and will be linked.
    • To generate a csv formatted report specify --format csv.
