pewo / ansible-role-thinlinc-beta-server

This is a role to install a Thinlinc beta server

ansible-role-thinlinc-beta-server

This is a role that installs the latest Thinlinc beta release. Please read:

• ansible-role-thinlinc-server/README.md

Requirements

This role uses the role ansible-role-thinlinc-server to install a beta Thinlinc server

Role Variables

thinlinc_beta_accept_eula: "no"

By changing this to "yes", you agree to the terms specified in the ThinLinc End User License Agreement. NOTE: Setting this to yes is a requirement for installing and using ThinLinc.

thinlinc_beta_version: "4.14.0"
thinlinc_beta_build: "2394"
thinlinc_beta_server_bundle: "/local/artifactory/tl-4.14.0beta1-server.zip"

ThinLinc version, build number and bundle names.

Dependencies

ansible-role-thinlinc-server

Examples

The role uses three groups - thinlinc_masters, thinlinc_agents and thinlinc-servers. Here's an example inventory file with one master server and three agent servers:

[thinlinc_masters]
tl-master-01.example.com

[thinlinc_agents]
tl-agent-01.example.com
tl-agent-02.example.com
tl-agent-03.example.com

[thinlinc_servers:children]
thinlinc_masters
thinlinc_agents

Now that we got both a role and an inventory, connect the dots by applying the thinlinc-server role to the thinlinc_servers group with a thinlinc.yml playbook:

- hosts: thinlinc_servers
  roles:
    - { role: ansible-role-thinlinc-beta-server, thinlinc_beta_accept_eula: "yes" }

The final step is to apply the playbook to the inventory, like this:

ansible-playbook -i inventory thinlinc.yml
