How to Running chef-client in regular interval

Running chef-client in regular interval

• Go to node, Open “crontab” file inside /etc directory & give

* * * * * root chef-client

(in bootstrap script, can give below command to automate completely)
echo "* * * * * root chef-client" >> /etc/crontab

• Modify the recipe and upload that cookbook to chef-server for testing

knife cookbook upload <cookbook>
(Adding cookbook’s recipe to node’s run-list is one time effort. Need not to add again and again)
