User sandy has been created on your control node with the appropriate permissions already, do not change or modify ssh keys. Install the necessary packages to run ansible on the control node. Configure ansible.cfg to be in folder /home/sandy/ansible/ansible.cfg and configure to access remote machines via the sandy user. All roles should be in the path /home/sandy/ansible/roles. The inventory path should be in /home/sandy/ansible/invenlory.

You will have access to 5 nodes.

node1.example.com

node2.example.com

node3.example.com

node4.example.com

node5.example.com

Configure these nodes to be in an inventory file where node I is a member of group dev. nodc2 is a member of group test, node3 is a member of group proxy, nodc4 and node 5 are members of group prod. Also, prod is a member of group webservers.

AExplanation:
In/home/sandy/ansible/ansible.cfg

roles_path=/home/sandy/ansible/roles
remote_user= sandy
host_key_checking=false
[privilegeescalation]
become=true
become_user=root
become_method=sudo
become_ask_pass=false
In /home/sandy/ansible/inventory
[dev]
node 1 .example.com
[test]
node2.example.com
[proxy]
node3 .example.com
[prod]
node4.example.com
node5 .example.com
[webservers:children]
prod

Question 3

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.

* 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.

Question 4

Generate a hosts file:

* Download an initial template file hosts.j2 from http://classroom.example.com/

hosts.j2 to

/home/admin/ansible/ Complete the template so that it can be used to generate a file

with a

line for each inventory host in the same format as /etc/hosts:

172.25.250.9 workstation.lab.example.com workstation

* Create a playbook called gen_hosts.yml that uses this template to generate the file

/etc/myhosts on hosts in the dev host group.

* When completed, the file /etc/myhosts on hosts in the dev host group should have a

line for

each managed host:

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4

::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6

172.25.250.10 serevra.lab.example.com servera

172.25.250.11 serevrb.lab.example.com serverb

172.25.250.12 serevrc.lab.example.com serverc

172.25.250.13 serevrd.lab.example.com serverd

-----------------------------------------------------------------

questation.

hosts.j2 file consists.

localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4

::1

localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6

localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
{% for host in groups['all'] %}
{{ hostvars[host]['ansible_facts']['default_ipv4']['address'] }} {{ hostvars[host]
['ansible_facts']['fqdn'] }} {{ hostvars[host]['ansible_facts']['hostname'] }}
{% endfor %}
