使用Chef Solo配置Windows EC2实例并引导它

[英]Using Chef Solo to provision a Windows EC2 instance and bootstrap it

原文 2013-03-24 15:35:13 5 2 windows/ amazon-ec2/ provisioning/ chef/ chef-solo

I'm trying to automate our CI process for a couple of .NET apps, and in a perfect world I'd like to spin up a Windows EC2 instance for each, bootstrap the instance to install Chef Solo and then execute a Chef recipe to install some dependencies and the packaged software itself. 我正在尝试为几个.NET应用程序自动执行CI过程，在一个完美的世界中，我想为每个实例启动一个Windows EC2实例，引导实例来安装Chef Solo，然后执行Chef配方到安装一些依赖项和打包的软件本身。

However - I'm a novice and have no idea even if that is feasible let alone where to start :) 然而 - 我是一个新手，即使这是可行的也不知道，更不用说从哪里开始了:)

I'm fairly well versed with the command line tools for AWS so can spin up an AMI ok, but beyond that point I'm pretty stuck. 我对AWS的命令行工具非常熟悉，所以可以启动AMI，但是超过这一点我很困难。 I would like to avoid building a custom AMI with chef pre-installed as that takes a lot of the advantages away. 我想避免使用预先安装的厨师来构建自定义AMI，因为这会带来很多优势。

I think this is essentially what I need to do - but is (unsurprisingly) focused on Linux: 我认为这基本上是我需要做的 - 但是（不出所料）专注于Linux：

Does anyone have a link to someone who has done this or similar before? 有没有人与之前做过此类似事件的人有链接？ Or a better way of achieving what I'd like to do? 或者更好的方式来实现我想做的事情？

Any help appreciated. 任何帮助赞赏。

Okay, this requires that you have Chef preinstalled on your AMI: 好的，这要求您在AMI上预装了Chef：

But this is a strategy for installing Puppet to a stock Windows AMI, which could easily be modified for Chef: 但是，这是安装木偶A股的Windows AMI，这很容易对厨师进行修改的策略：

I can't say I've done this yet, but I've both in my bookmarks bar since they was posted and have been planning on giving it a shot in at least our dev environment at some point. 我不能说我已经做到了这一点，但我已经在我的书签栏中，因为他们被张贴了，并且计划在某个时候至少在我们的开发环境中给它一个镜头。 It seems like as long as there's a solid silent install for Chef, you could pull this off. 似乎只要有一个坚实的无声安装为厨师，你可以把它拉下来。

I realize this post is a bit old, but for those that still may come across this. 我意识到这篇文章有点陈旧，但对于那些仍然可能会遇到这个问题的人来说。 I'm provisioning servers using Chef-Solo. 我使用Chef-Solo配置服务器。 Essentially I configure the User-Data of the instance to download and install Chef, download the cookbooks/recipes, and then launch Chef-Solo. 基本上我配置实例的用户数据来下载和安装Chef，下载cookbook / recipes，然后启动Chef-Solo。

Here's a blog post I've made to demonstrate the steps: http://thesysadminswatercooler.blogspot.com/2015/11/aws-bootstrap-windows-ec2-instance-with.html 这是我用来演示步骤的博客文章： http ： //thesysadminswatercooler.blogspot.com/2015/11/aws-bootstrap-windows-ec2-instance-with.html
