Chef Versions
When you call CreateStack, CloneStack, or UpdateStack we recommend you
use the ConfigurationManager parameter to specify the Chef version.
The recommended and default value for Linux stacks is currently 12. Windows stacks use Chef 12.2. For more information,
see Chef Versions.
Note
You can specify Chef 12, 11.10, or 11.4 for your Linux stack. We recommend migrating your existing Linux stacks to Chef 12 as soon as possible.
