+Create roles here, in either the Role Ruby DSL (.rb) or JSON (.json) files. To install roles on the server, use knife.
+
+For example, create `roles/base_example.rb`:
+
+ name "base_example"
+ description "Example base role applied to all nodes."
+ # List of recipes and roles to apply. Requires Chef 0.8, earlier versions use 'recipes()'.
+ #run_list()
+ # Attributes applied if the node doesn't have it set already.
+ #default_attributes()
+ # Attributes applied no matter what the node has set already.
+ #override_attributes()
+
+Then upload it to the Chef Server:
+
+ knife role from file roles/base_example.rb
