 The workflow for a running system is recipes, roles, and chef code is written on a workstation and added to a chef repository. The person on the workstation then pushes updates to the chef server. The client then contacts the chef server for updates, gets the updates, and applies them locally. {{{Knife}}}, on a workstation, can also install Chef-client (and other packages) directly on a client. If this is done the flow becomes: 1) workstation pushes update to the server, 2) the workstation installs Chef on a client and gives it an initial role or list of recipes, 3) the newly installed {{{chef-client}}} then contacts the chef server and downloads the recipes and executes them, configuring the client node.
