Making Ansible tasks

Within MGMT02, ping all devices to make sure MGMT02 is able to see them.

Make the Directory

`sudo mkdir -p /etc/ansible/playbooks

Put all Ansible playbooks into that directory

Ansible APT package

Make a new Ansible playbook

- name: Install apt package
  hosts: dhcp01,dhcp02,util
  become: yes
  tasks:
    - name: Install htop
      apt:
        name: htop
        state: present

• Run this to run the playbook:

ansible-playbook /etc/ansible/playbooks/apt_install.yml --ask-become-pass

Yum Package

• Make the file

sudo nano /etc/ansible/playbooks/yum_install.yml

• Make the ansible file

- name: Install yum package
  hosts: dhcp01,dhc02,util
  become: yes
  tasks:
    - name: Install vim via yum
      package: 
        name: vim
        state: present
        use: apt

      user:
        name: b1localuser
        password: "{{ 'Password1!' | password_hash('sha512') }}"
        shell: /bin/bash
        create_home: yes
