This document provides instructions on how to install pip and wheel for the system Python on CentOS/RHEL using either EPEL or the PyPA Copr repository. It also discusses enabling passwordless SSH authentication and using Ansible modules to manage services, copy files between hosts, install packages, and set file permissions.

Host Key Checking
Ansible 1.2.1 and later have host key checking enabled by default.
If a host is reinstalled and has a different key in ‘known_hosts’, this will result in an error message until corrected. If a host is not initially in ‘known_hosts’ this will result in prompting for confirmation of the key, which results in an interactive experience if using Ansible, from say, cron. You might not want this.
If you understand the implications and wish to disable this behavior, you can do so by editing /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg or ~/.ansible.cfg:
[defaults] host_key_checking = False
To install pip and wheel for the system Python, there are two options:
1. Enable the EPEL repository using these instructions. On EPEL 6 and EPEL7, you can install pip like so: 2. sudo yum install python-pip
On EPEL 7 (but not EPEL 6), you can install wheel like so:
sudo yum install python-wheel
Since EPEL only offers extra, non-conflicting packages, EPEL does not offer setuptools, since it’s in the core repository.
3. Enable the PyPA Copr Repo using these instructions [1]. You can install pip and wheel like so: 4. sudo yum install python-pip python-wheel
To additionally upgrade setuptools, run:
sudo yum upgrade python-setuptools

The default location for the host inventory file is /etc/ansible/hosts. The ansible* commands will use a different host inventory file when they are used with the --inventory PATHNAME option, -i PATHNAME for short.
Ansible host inventories can include groups of host groups. This is accomplished with the :children suffix. The following example creates a new group, called nwcapitols, that includes all of the hosts from the olympia and salem groups.
Ranges match all the values between START and END, inclusive. Consider the following examples: • 192.168.[4:7].[0:255] - all IP addresses in the 192.168.4.0/22 network (192.168.4.0 through 192.168.7.255). • server[01:20].example.com - all hosts named server01.example.com through server20.example.com.
Managed hosts Managed hosts do not need to have any special Ansible agent installed. They do need to have Python 2, version 2.4 or later installed. If the version of Python installed on the managed host is earlier than Python 2.5, then it must also have the python-simplejson package installed.
At times, it is desirable to use Ansible to manage systems that can not have Python installed. Systems in this category, such as network routers, can be managed using Ansible's raw module. Arguments passed to this module are run directly through the configured remote shell instead of going through the module subsystem. However, in most other cases the raw module should be avoided. Wildcards Another method of accomplishing the same thing as the all host pattern is to use the '*' wildcard character, which matches any string. The following example shows how the '*' host pattern can be used to reference all hosts defined in an inventory. [student@controlnode ~]$ ansible '*' --list-hosts hosts (6): labhost1.example.com test1.example.com labhost2.example.com test2.example.com
In contrast, when used in conjunction with the '&' character to separate groups in a host pattern, the ':&' characters denote the intersections of two groups in the inventory. The following example shows the use of a host pattern referencing hosts that are members of both the lab and datacenter1 groups.
ansible all -m ping -u bruce -b --become-user batman
Any host that is member of a child group is automatically a member of the parent group. • A child group’s variables will have higher precedence (override) a parent group’s variables. • Groups can have multiple parents and children, but not circular relationships. • Hosts can also be in multiple groups, but there will only be one instance of a host, merging the data from the multiple groups. Default source path can be:-
/etc/ansible/files/
OR
/etc/ansible/ Handlers :- How to use Handlers as below Yaml is a set of key value pairs
To reboot the hosts
[ansible@master ansible]$ ansible all -a "ls -la /home/ansible"
[ansible@master ansible]$ ansible databases -b -a "less /var/log/messages"
[ansible@master ansible]$ ansible all -s -a "ls -l /root"
-m stands for module [ansible@master ansible]$ ansible databases -b -m yum -a "name=elinks state=latest"
[ansible@master ansible]$ ansible databases -b -m yum -a "name=elinks state=absent"

[ansible@master ansible]$ cat myhosts
[devel] localhost folder=/home/ansible
FORK controls how many hosts will run the adhoc command together if we have multiple hosts in the hosts file:- [ansible@master ansible]$ ansible all -a "ls -l" -f 100 192.168.38.47 | SUCCESS | rc=0 >> total 0
localhost | SUCCESS | rc=0 >>
total 0 drwxrwxr-x. 2 ansible ansible 6 Jan 10 06:51 dir1 drwxrwxr-x. 2 ansible ansible 6 Jan 10 06:51 dir2

[ansible@master ansible]$ ansible databases -b -a "touch testfile" --become-user
test
The above will create testfile in test users home directory
[ansible@master ansible]$ ansible databases -b -a "touch testfile1"
The above will create testfile1 in ansibles home directory
[ansible@master ansible]$ ansible databases -m copy -a "src=/etc/ansible/testfile9
dest=./testfile9"
[ansible@master ansible]$ ansible databases -b -m file -a "dest=/home/test/file123

[ansible@master ansible]$ ansible databases -m file -a "dest=./file15 mode=600"

[ansible@master static-hosts-example]$ ansible -i myhosts aws -a "ls -l /var/log/"
[ansible@master static-hosts-example]$ ansible -i myhosts all -a "hostname"
[ansible@master static-hosts-example]$ ansible -i myhosts aws -a "hostname"

How to install ansible from source
mkdir ansibletemp cd ansibletemp/ yum install git git clone git://github.com/ansible/ansible.git --recursive cd ansible/ ll cd bin/ ll ./ansible (wont run as ansible needs to be compiled) yum install gcc glibc (C compiler is needed) cd .. make make install which ansible ansible --version WEB-DB Playbook
port: 8080 The playbook first updates the Yum repository and installs the Java OpenJDK software dependency required for Jenkins. The Git and Tex Live LaTeX packages are required to build our project github.com/shakthimaan/di-git-ally-managing-love-letters. We then download the Jenkins repository file and import the repository GPG key. The Jenkins server is then installed, port 8080 is allowed through the firewall, and the script waits for the server to listen on port 8080. The above playbook can be invoked using the following command:
With the Command module the command will be executed without being proceeded through a shell. As a consequence variables like $HOME are not available. And also stream operations like <, >, | and & will not work. The Shell module runs a command through a shell, by default /bin/sh. This can be changed with the option executable and redirection are here therefor available. The command module is more secure, because it will not be affected by the user’s environment.
