Ansible Playbook is the Ansible way to execute multiples tasks in a simple execution. This lesson explores Ansible Playbooks and their main aspects.
In order to understand this lesson properly, a set of steps have been designed to be implemented in the following section.
ENJOY !!!
- Create an inventory file named "inventory" with a group named "myinstance" and your internal instance IP assigned included
- Create a playbook named playbook.yml, using "myinstance" as a hosts parameter and
<studentxx>as a user. The playbook should use tasks to ensure that the following conditions are met on the managed hosts:- Print "It is working" message on group "myinstance"
- Print instance settings on group "myinstance"
- Create a new user "testplay01" on group "myinstance" using become (root)
- Install package "httpd" on group "myinstance" using become (root)
- Enable and up "httpd" service on group "myinstance" using become (root)
- Before running your playbook, run the ansible-playbook --syntax-check command to verify that its syntax is correct
- Run the playbook and verify results via curl http://localhost
