Create a jinja template in /home/sandy/ansible/ and name it hosts.j2. Edit this file so it looks like the one below. The order of the nodes doesn't matter. Then create a playbook in /home/sandy/ansible called hosts.yml and install the template on dev node at /root/myhosts

Create an empty encrypted file called myvault.yml in /home/sandy/ansible and set the password to notsafepw. Rekey the password to iwejfj2221.

Create a file called specs.empty in home/bob/ansible on the local machine as follows:

HOST=

MEMORY=

BIOS=

VDA_DISK_SIZE=

VDB_DISK_SIZE=

Create the playbook /home/bob/ansible/specs.yml which copies specs.empty to all remote nodes' path /root/specs.txt. Using the specs.yml playbook then edit specs.txt on the remote machines to reflect the appropriate ansible facts.

Using the Simulation Program, perform the following tasks:

Static Inventories Task:

1. Add a new group to your default ansible host file. call the group [ec2]

2. Add a new host to the new group you created.

3. Add a variable to a new host entry in the /etc/ansible/hosts file. Add the following. localhost http_port=80 maxRequestsPerChild=808

4. Check to see if maxRequestsPerChild is pulled out with an ad-hoc command.

5. Create a local host file and put a target group and then a host into it. Then ping it with an ad-hoc command.

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 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.

Create a file in /home/sandy/ansible/ called report.yml. Using this playbook, get a file called report.txt (make it look exactly as below).
