Hi guys!

let’s take a look of Chef Automate.. In this post we will se how to install it quickly.

I will install it through Vagrant but you can use my cookbook into a Chef Server.

Requirements:

1. a Chef Server. Change default[‘chef_automate’][‘chef_server’][‘url’] with the correct IP
2. an user’s key (client.pem) of a member of your Chef Server Organization. Change default[‘chef_automate’][‘key’][‘base’] and default[‘chef_automate’][‘key’][‘name’] with your values
3. a Virtualbox private network 192.168.56.0 (or you can set a port forwarding into the Vagrantfile in order access to the webserver through  http://127.0.0.1)
4. a delivery.license file. Put it into the cookbook directory. You can see it on /vagrant into the guest vm.

Start the provision..
