Project Clearwater is an open-source IMS core, developed by Metaswitch Networks and released under the GNU GPLv3. You can find more information about it on our website or our wiki.

For instructions on how to use Chef with Clearwater, see:

• Creating a deployment with Chef

The recommended workflow is to keep all Chef configuration under version control, and to update the Chef server from this configuration.

Updating the Chef server

Knife provides commands for updating the config on the Chef server. Typically you'll be updating the following:

• Cookbooks - edit files in cookbooks/ and upload with knife cookbook upload <name>
• Environments - edit files in environments/ and upload with knife environment from file environments/<name>.rb
• Roles - edit files in roles/ and upload with knife role from file roles/<name>.rb

For details on more knife commands run knife --help and consult the documentation
