Create an EC2 instance using Chef knife

• "role[ubuntu]" : The run_list I want to associate with the newly created node. You can put any roles and recipes you like here
• -I : The AMI ID that you would like to start
• -f or --flavor : The Amazon EC2 instance type
• -S or --ssh-key : The name you gave to the SSH key pair generated in the AWS management console
• -i or --identity-file : The private key file of that SSH key pair as downloaded when the key pair was created in the AWS management console
• --ssh-user : The official Ubuntu EC2 AMIs use ubuntu as the default user
• --region : If you want your instances to be deployed in any specific Amazon AWS region, add this parameter and the desired region
• -Z : The availability zone within your region
