如何将节点添加到可以访问Chef服务器上的数据包的客户端列表？

Question

I want/need one of my nodes to access a data bag on my chef server. The purpose is to get a decrypted ssh key so i can clone from a private repo. I've been trying many variations of

knife vault update data_bag item -A 'name-of-node'

But I do not see the node come up on the list of clients with access.

What am I doing wrong in this command or need to do to get this to work? I've been following this guide , but I'm not using roles.

Answer 1

Figured out that this command works for updating, but it basically adds all nodes and users. Would prefer a more precise answer for just an individual node if someone has one.

knife vault update data_bag item --search '*:*' --admins me --mode client

EDIT:

As the user in the comments mentioned, this too works and is more correct.

knife vault create data_bag item '{"itemname":"securepass"}' --search 'name:my-node-name' --admins me --mode client
