I'm trying to learn Ansible since it's part of the Network Automation learning path for Cisco. Their documentation was a bit complex to understand and I would just get bored trying to understand it and eventually the knowledge would slip out of my head. With the way you discussed it, I'm starting to grasp it better now and am actually interested seeing as now I have a better understanding. Thanks.

For example here you reference best practices via SSH keys, but chose not to go into it. I remember teaching myself about keys from Google and how it seemed like a huge deal at the time. Had that been included in this tutorial, many would have felt it to be overwhelming as you said. I am going to use your strategy of "containerizing" the subjects as I train my team in the future, thanks again.

Great video, thanks. I started using Ansible a few months ago, it has been working very well. I have configured things slightly differently, I have used "roles" for each sort of thing I want to be on each system (web server, router, ssh, misc, etc.) and then control that via a playbook that pulls in the roles. For me the nice part about roles is I can have all the templates, config files, etc. all in the role directory of each role so I know what files belong to what role.

Great content, as usual! The way you set the timesync configuration is great for ad-hoc runs, first time setup, or to run when you actually know the file changes. Also keeps it easy for first time learners, good job! However I strongly believe we should be telling Ansible how we want our systems to be rather then what we want to be done (state vs execution) If you use Ansible in a "keep state" fashion, the timezone task would unnecessarily restart the service every time you run the playbook. A different practice would be to have a handler on the template, so it would trigger an action only when the file changes Also, I'm not entirely sure you really need to stop the service before change the config file. I'm not familiar with timesync but generally you don't need to do that for Linux services, a restart (or reload sometimes) after changing the file is enough. This is my suggestion on how to do that in an idempotent way: tasks: ... ... - name: Copy timesyncd config template: src: dst: /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf notify: - restart timesyncd handlers: - name: restart timesyncd service: systemd-timesyncd state: restarted

Nice introduction to Ansible. I've been doing some of these operations (apt update/upgrade, java check and install) automatically with a script language I've created. Writing code gives more flexibility, but also is more error-prone. Ansible clearly is a good product, and supporting SSH both with key files and passwords is elegant. My homebrewn solution depends on key-files for SSH and updated /etc/sudoers for non-password sudo. It would be nice if you post more videos about Ansible, and also let me give you an overall thanks for a lot of interesting topics on this channe (proxmox, freeNAS, kubernetes)!

I just started to play with SaltStack but after watching this, I think I'm going to switch to Ansible as it seems a better fit for a small home lab and doesn't require agents. Thanks Tim!
@denzilhoff6026 3 жыл бұрын
Saltstack is a far superior product but , as you said, at small scale it is the more complicated solution. Take that scale to a couple of datacenters and a few thousand vms and it is a different proposition. Salt will be much faster at scale vs ansible. Ansible also is going to be the easier of the two to stand up. Saltstack supports a closed-loop feedback model via beacons. --- practical example : I need to take some action when a service shuts down unexpectedly. I create a beacon to watch the service . I then create a reactor on the saltstack server that will be triggered when the beacon fires.

This is a FANTASTIC introduction. Well presented and useful for a quickstart. However, I think it would be super beneficial to briefly talk about Infrastructure as Code concepts and how Ansible adheres to the approach in a follow up. It's one thing to use Ansible in a similar manner to shell scripts. But to make the full use of any config management or IAC tool, it's worth teaching concepts such as idempotency, version control, integration testing, reusable modules, etc.

i really love that ntp example, i solved this this in a similarway too. One difference i solved it more task based, i set a variable in my hosts file like new_hostname=pihole and in the role i set the path to the configfile to something like this like this src: "{{ new_hostname }}/etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf", which in this example looks in the file folder for the folder pihole ( which it gets from the hostname variable i set and the hostname i declare in playbook or command line ) and then in the subfolders for the file, which allows me to deliver different timesyncd.config files for different clients withtout getting messy in the tasks main.yml cause for each use case or client there is a folderstructure with the correspondent config files =) Never tried to use it on windows, but i manage my root server with its vm's and my local raspberrypis with it. Youre absolutetly right with the ssh keys, not only is it more secure but it makes working with ansible so much more pleasant, especialy if youre in the phase of building roles / tasks / playing, sometimes things fail and having to type the password all the time sucks, keys make that anoyance dissapear, especialy if you want to reach a machine over a bastion host

Actually, the changes you always see is due to stop/start the service: the template file is not copied over if the destination file is exactly the same (that's implied by the Ansible module that performs that check for you). In fact, in your run, when performing the copy task, only a server results as changed because of the file copy (the other ones are not changed, because you had already copied the same file).

Hey Tim, I've been using Proxmox for a few years, along with KVM based alternatives prior to, but I've been through a few kernel editions with Debian or Ubuntu. For the "qemu-guest-agent" I've only recently been able to get this working properly in Deb 10, where as 9 and 8 seem to be unresponsive when shutdown is executed via PVE making the alternative ACPI... Have you encountered this issue with early kernels (provided you use Debian)?

I've been looking to try Ansible, and so i might try this for the same tasks getting a system upto par, and to configure LDAP authentication.

Hey! I only use Ubuntu, outside of proxmox of course, so not sure!

@@TechnoTim I'll be darn..admittedly I've used Debian as my go-to 9/10th's the time with any guest OS, and with LXC, but I tested the guest agent on Xenial LTS, no issues

That's so smart to use Ansible to install the qemu packages!! I'm off to update my install playbooks in Proxmox 😁

Don't you have to install the qemu-agent in order to receive an IP for your VM in Proxmox? How can you SSH into it to use Ansible without having an IP? I am confused...

@@maximilianworner1288 No the ip gets set up when you create the VM. The qemu bit just helps with VM performance along with some other things. As far as the vm knows it just gets the virtual nic from the host machine before you even launch the iso install
