Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.

  command '/opt/mycompany/libexec/mydaemon -d > /dev/console 2>&1'
  action :install
end

Parameters:

  • runlevel - the runlevel of the inittab entry
  • processaction - the action of the process (e.g. "once", "boot", etc.)
  • command - the command to run

aix_subserver 'tftp' do
  protocol 'udp'
  action :disable
end

Parameters:

  • servicename - name of the service as it appears in the first field of /etc/inetd.conf
  • type - type of service. Valid values: dgram stream sunrpc_udp sunrpc_tcp

aix_tcpservice 'xntpd' do

aix_toolboxpackage "a2ps" do
  action :install
end
