Create Logical volumes with lvm.yml in all nodes according to following

requirements.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Create a new Logical volume named as 'data'

* LV should be the member of 'research' Volume Group

* LV size should be 1500M

* It should be formatted with ext4 file-system.

--> If Volume Group does not exist then it should print the message "VG Not found"

--> If the VG can not accommodate 1500M size then it should print "LV Can not be

created with

following size", then the LV should be created with 800M of size.

--> Do not perform any mounting for this LV.

Generate a hosts file:

* Download an initial template file hosts.j2 from http://classroom.example.com/

hosts.j2 to

/home/admin/ansible/ Complete the template so that it can be used to generate a file

with a

line for each inventory host in the same format as /etc/hosts:

172.25.250.9 workstation.lab.example.com workstation

* Create a playbook called gen_hosts.yml that uses this template to generate the file

/etc/myhosts on hosts in the dev host group.

* When completed, the file /etc/myhosts on hosts in the dev host group should have a

line for

each managed host:

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4

::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6

172.25.250.10 serevra.lab.example.com servera

172.25.250.11 serevrb.lab.example.com serverb

172.25.250.12 serevrc.lab.example.com serverc

172.25.250.13 serevrd.lab.example.com serverd

-----------------------------------------------------------------

while practising you to create these file hear. But in exam have to download as per

questation.

hosts.j2 file consists.

localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4

::1

localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Create an Ansible vault to store user passwords as follows:

* The name of the vault is valut.yml

* The vault contains two variables as follows:

- dev_pass with value wakennym

- mgr_pass with value rocky

* The password to encrypt and decrypt the vault is atenorth

* The password is stored in the file /home/admin/ansible/password.txt

Create a role called apache in "/home/admin/ansible/roles" with the following

requirements:

--> The httpd package is installed, enabled on boot, and started.

--> The firewall is enabled and running with a rule to allow access to the web server.

--> template file index.html.j2 is used to create the file /var/www/html/index.html

with the output:

Welcome to HOSTNAME on IPADDRESS

--> Where HOSTNAME is the fqdn of the managed node and IPADDRESS is the IP-Address of

the managed node.

note: you have to create index.html.j2 file.

--> Create a playbook called httpd.yml that uses this role and the playbook runs on

hosts in the webservers host group.

In /home/sandy/ansible/ create a playbook called logvol.yml. In the play create a logical volume called Iv0 and make it of size 1500MiB on volume group vgO If there is not enough space in the volume group print a message "Not enough space for logical volume" and then make a 800MiB Iv0 instead. If the volume group still doesn't exist, create a message "Volume group doesn't exist" Create an xfs filesystem on all Iv0 logical volumes. Don't mount the logical volume.

Create an ansible vault password file called lock.yml with the password reallysafepw in the /home/sandy/ansible directory. In the lock.yml file define two variables. One is pw_dev and the password is 'dev' and the other is pw_mgr and the password is 'mgr' Create a regular file called secret.txt which contains the password for lock.yml.

Create a playbook called webdev.yml in 'home/sandy/ansible. The playbook will create a directory Avcbdev on dev host. The permission of the directory are 2755 and owner is webdev. Create a symbolic link from /Webdev to /var/www/html/webdev. Serve a file from Avebdev7index.html which displays the text "Development" Curl http://nod e1.example.com/webdev/index.html to test

Install and configure ansible

User bob has been created on your control node. Give him the appropriate permissions on the control node. Install the necessary packages to run ansible on the control node.

Create a configuration file /home/bob/ansible/ansible.cfg to meet the following requirements:

• The roles path should include /home/bob/ansible/roles, as well as any other path that may be required for the course of the sample exam.

• The inventory file path is /home/bob/ansible/inventory.

• Ansible should be able to manage 10 hosts at a single time.

• Ansible should connect to all managed nodes using the bob user.

Create an inventory file for the following five nodes:

nodel.example.com

node2.example.com

node3.example.com

node4.example.com

node5.example.com

Configure these nodes to be in an inventory file where node1 is a member of group dev. nodc2 is a member of group test, nodc3 is a member of group proxy, nodc4 and node 5 are members of group prod. Also, prod is a member of group webservers.

Create a playbook /home/bob /ansible/motd.yml that runs on all inventory hosts and docs the following: The playbook should replaee any existing content of/etc/motd in the following text. Use ansible facts to display the FQDN of each host

On hosts in the dev host group the line should be "Welcome to Dev Server FQDN".

On hosts in the webserver host group the line should be "Welcome to Apache Server FQDN".

On hosts in the database host group the line should be "Welcome to MySQL Server FQDN".
