Ansible
Installation:
-
- Epel-release repositry has to be downloaded and installed
- Using rpm package or yum
- Check wether epel has been in the list of repolist
- We are going to install ansible package on control node
Control node
requirements:
- It should be RHEL 6 and above
- Linux or any other BSD based Unix system
- Control node must have Python 2.6 or 2.7 installed.
- Windows not supported
Managed host
requirements:
- Ssh connection should be established
- Must have python 2.4 and later installed.
- Python-simple.json package must also be installed on RHEL 5.0 managed host.
"ansible --version"
Now you take some managed hosts(windows or linux machines) and start playing on that machine by running different ansible playbooks for configuration management.
