This tutorial will guide you through the steps to install Chef on Fedora CoreOS latest version. Chef is a configuration management tool that automates infrastructure management tasks. It makes it easier for system administrators to manage and deploy software across their infrastructure.
Before you start, ensure that you have the following:
You need to add the Chef repository to the system before you can install Chef.
Open a terminal window.
Run the following command to add the Chef repository:
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://packages.chef.io/repos/yum/stable/el/7/x86_64/
The next step is to import the Chef GPG key. Run the following command:
sudo rpm --import https://packages.chef.io/chef.asc
With the Chef repository added to the system, you can now proceed to install Chef. Follow the steps below:
Run the following command to update the system packages:
sudo dnf update
Run the following command to install Chef:
sudo dnf install chef
Press "y" and hit Enter to confirm the installation.
The installation process will start, and it may take a few minutes to complete.
Once the installation process is complete, you can verify that Chef was installed correctly.
Run the following command to check the version of Chef:
chef -v
The output should show the current Chef version.
Run the following command to check the Chef client status:
sudo systemctl status chef-client
The output should show that the chef-client service is running.
You have successfully installed Chef on Fedora CoreOS latest version. You can now use Chef to automate infrastructure management tasks on your system.
