Data bag hints for getting started #11

Closed pburkholder closed 11 years ago

pburkholder commented 11 years ago

The monitor::master recipe halts if there aren't any checks in the data bag. Since the checks are key to getting rolling, added to the README.

I would actually like to improve https://github.com/portertech/chef-monitor/blob/master/recipes/_worker.rb#L44 so a sensu_checks data bag isn't mandatory.

Pending the improvements to _worker.rb, how about merging this so other noobs can at least get rolling.
