Networking Troubles with Vagrant Box ubuntu/wily64

For some reason, the network interfaces in ubuntu/wily64 fail to configure at boot. The interfaces are renamed during boot, with dmesg reporting things like udev renamed network interface eth0 to enp1s0. This is apparently the result of a change in systemd. You can read about it here:

Starting with v197 systemd/udev will automatically assign predictable, stable network interface names for all local Ethernet, WLAN and WWAN interfaces. This is a departure from the traditional interface naming scheme ("eth0", "eth1", "wlan0", ...), but should fix real problems.

Create the following folder structure in your cookbook:

test
└── integrationq
    ├── helpers
    │   ├── serverspec
    │   │   ├── shared_serverspec_tests
    │   │   │   └── shared_tests2.rb
    │   │   └── spec_helper.rb

If you want to check whether a node run_list includes a specific role (upon expansion), then you could use role? method on the Node object:

node.role?('name')

Alternatively, you can see whether either would work for you:

node.roles.include?('name')

node.run_list?('role[name]')

Internet Scale Services Checklist

A checklist for designing and developing internet scale services, inspired by James Hamilton's 2007 paper "On Desgining and Deploying Internet-Scale Services."

http://mvdirona.com/jrh/talksandpapers/jamesrh_lisa.pdf

Basic tenets

Does the design expect failures to happen regularly and handle them gracefully?
Have we kept things as simple as possible?

##Preview

Description

Simple Dashing widget that displays all currently open pull requests across a GitHub organization.

##Usage

	#!/bin/bash

	set -e
	#set -x

	TOKEN=$( cat /root/.github-token )

	BASEURL="https://api.github.com/orgs/${1}/repos?type=owner&access_token=${TOKEN}&per_page=100"

	BACKUPS_ZFS="zones/$( zonename )/data/backup/github"

	# INCIDENT DATE - INCIDENT TYPE

	## Meeting

	#### Waiving meetings

	In some cases the IC might determine that a PM meeting for the incident isn't needed.
	If the IC decides to waive the meeting please replace the `Meeting` section with a
	note indicating the meeting has been waived (example: `Meeting waived: Paul Mooring`)

	# knife cheat

	## Search Examples

	knife search "name:ip*"
	knife search "platform:ubuntu*"
	knife search "platform:*" -a macaddress
	knife search "platform:ubuntu*" -a uptime
	knife search "platform:ubuntu*" -a virtualization.system
	knife search "platform:ubuntu*" -a network.default_gateway

	Test:
	it "executes dummy command" do
	expect(chef_run).to run_execute('random hiragana 料').with_command('puts 料理長')
	end

	Other notes:
	Cookbook upload works fine with Japanese in all parts of the cookbook.
