Ansible playbooks for provisioning linux and windows machines.

ansible

A collection of Ansible playbooks that run through specific tasks as well as provision machines.

These plays use sudo for Linux machines and kerberos/winrm for Windows machines. make sure you have the correct permissions on the machine(s) that your provisioning.

These plays also use /etc/ansible/hosts for inventory, we've provided one in the playbook hierarchy to override any current settings.

Run your plays using the site.yml for the site your running against: packer or external

For now we've split the sites into Linux and Windows hosts, so you'll find inventory files in each site folder

inventory/external/linux.yml
inventory/external/windows.yml

Testing with docker

inventory/packer/packer-docker.json

Build Container:

cd inventory/packer
packer build packer-docker.json

Additional information; Debug steps, keep docker container after failed build, specify logs:

PACKER_LOG=1 PACKER_LOG_PATH=/tmp/packer-recent.log packer build -on-error=abort -debug packer-docker.json

Examples

ansible-playbook inventory/external/linux.yml --ask-become-pass --syntax

Check if Playbook works with a Dry Run: (--check):

ansible-playbook inventory/external/linux.yml --ask-become-pass --check

Run Play, prompt locally and ask for sudo password:

ansible-playbook inventory/external/linux.yml --ask-become-pass
