[All EX294 Questions]

Install and configure ansible

User bob has been created on your control node. Give him the appropriate permissions on the control node. Install the necessary packages to run ansible on the control node.

Create a configuration file /home/bob/ansible/ansible.cfg to meet the following requirements:

* The roles path should include /home/bob/ansible/roles, as well as any other path that may be required for the course of the sample exam.

* The inventory file path is /home/bob/ansible/inventory.

* Ansible should be able to manage 10 hosts at a single time.

* Ansible should connect to all managed nodes using the bob user.

Create an inventory file for the following five nodes:

nodel.example.com

node2.example.com

node3.example.com

node4.example.com

node5.example.com

Configure these nodes to be in an inventory file where node1 is a member of group dev. nodc2 is a member of group test, nodc3 is a member of group proxy, nodc4 and node 5 are members of group prod. Also, prod is a member of group webservers.

The config file setup looks pretty standard, but I'll make sure to double-check the paths and permissions to avoid any silly mistakes.

Haha, I bet the exam writers had fun coming up with those node names. 'node1.example.com' is so generic, it's almost funny.

The inventory file requirements seem straightforward, but I wonder if there are any special considerations for managing 10 hosts at once.

Exactly, and don't forget to set the roles path and inventory file path in the ansible.cfg file to match the requirements.

Managing 10 hosts at once shouldn't be too difficult if you have everything set up properly.
