Thanks! I have tried by inserting the necessary rows into the Scalr database and getting scalarizr installed on the server in question. I got pretty far, my Scalr server for the most part controls the added server however, there are a few glitches, such as the Scalr server thinks the agent is out of date and the scalarizr agent on the server won't start up and keeps deleting my config.ini in private.d and wipes out the default key everytime I run it. I haven't tried any chef runs on it yet, but will soon. Thanks for your response!
