<p>Here's another plugin that I have written. It integrates Chef such that master nodes are configured as chef clients/nodes.<br>

system seems to presume that validation.pem file is widely distributed. I'm attempting to limit the need for this file being everywhere (by using chef bootstrap). It works, but doesn't seem like the right approach. Am I just misunderstanding Chef somehow?
currently it's not possible to tell if starcluster node is terminated or just stopped. If one deletes chef client on stop, then start doesn't work. I chose to delete the node but leave the client. But this also doesn't seem like the right approach. - Gist
is a simple way to share snippets of text and code with others.</div>

​It's kind of clunky but seems to work. In particular, I've attempted to de-provision the node (if not the client) when cluster terminates. But I'm new to Chef and StarCluster both, so this could be totally missing the way Chef is supposed to operate. <br>

<div>Thanks Sergio,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>You have a second there. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>People were very helpful to me in the past when I asked questions and they suggested plugins that solved my problems. However, I still do not understand too much about them to the point I can write one on my own, and I saw others in the list that ask similar
questions about plugins.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The real question is if anyone who understands enough is willing to take this effort of a centralized repository?
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If someone does choose to invest in this it will help for sure and may grow to be a useful tool set.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Hi fellows,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I´ve got no doubt that StarCluster is a fantastic tool. This helps lots of people on creating and managing an array of clusters.</div>
<div>But there is more.. the plugins.. They can help us improve what is really great.</div>
<div>The problem is knowing how to really develop and find them. They are scattered on internet.</div>
<div>I think that if someone (loving soul) creates a catalog of plugins, starting with "How to develop a StarCluster plugin for dummies"... this should be something. Better if Justin and Rayson cloud enhance the StarCluster´s site (<a href="http://star.mit.edu/cluster/docs/latest/manual/plugins.html#plugin-system" target="_blank">http://star.mit.edu/cluster/docs/latest/manual/plugins.html#plugin-system</a>)
to be like a micro git.</div>
<div>Tell me what do you think.</div>
<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">
