ansible repository/structure
files - files and templates for use in playbooks/tasks
- subdirs for specific tasks/dirs highly recommended
inventory - where the inventory and additional vars is stored
library - library of custom local ansible modules
playbooks - collections of plays we want to run on systems
tasks - snippets of tasks that should be included in plays
public path for everything is:
/srv/web/infra/ansible
private path - which is sysadmin-main accessible only is:
/srv/private/ansible
cloud instances:
to startup a new cloud instance and configure for basic server use run (as
root):
el6:
sudo -i ansible-playbook /srv/web/infra/ansible/playbooks/el6-temp-instance.yml
f17:
sudo -i ansible-playbook /srv/web/infra/ansible/playbooks/f17-temp-instance.yml
The -i is important - ansible's tools need access to root's sshagent as well
as the cloud credentials to run the above playbooks successfully.
This will setup a new instance, provision it and email sysadmin-main that
the instance was created, it's instance id (for terminating it, attaching
volumes, etc) and it's ip address.
You will then be able to login, as root.
