       and executed a node.save. The fields displayed are the relative checkin time, the node name, it's operating system  platform  and  version,
       the  fully-qualified  domain  name  and the default IP address. If the -r option is given, the node's run list will also be displayed. Note
       that depending on the configuration of the nodes, the FQDN and IP displayed may not be publicly reachable.

BULK DELETE

       knife role bulk delete REGEX (options)

       Delete roles on the Chef Server based on a regular expression. The regular expression (REGEX) should be in quotes, not in //'s.

DESCRIPTION

       Roles  provide  a  mechanism to group repeated configuration settings. Roles are data structures that contain default_attributes, and over-
       ride_attributes, which are nested hashes of configuration settings, and a run_list, which is an ordered list  of  recipes  and  roles  that
       should be applied to a host by chef-client.

       default_attributes  will be overridden if they conflict with a value on a node that includes the role. Conversely, override_attributes will
       override any values set on nodes that apply them.

       When chef-client(8) configures a host, it will "expand" the run_list included in that host's node data. The expansion process  will  recur-
       sively replace any roles in the run_list with that role's run_list.
