Ansible-Linux_Base

Configures a Linux machine to the corporate base image from default install media with a minimal install

Requirements

If the "base_core_hostname" variable is defined, it is recommended to set the ansible_ssh_common_args variable for the host to the following setting so the regeneration of the SSH host keys will not cause an error.

Variable	Value
ansible_ssh_common_args	'-o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no'

Example

Execute playbook with needed variables

ansible-playbook -i hosts site.yml --ask-pass --ask-become-pass

# file: hosts.yml

    Server1:

      base_core_hostname: "Server1"

  vars:
