Hands-on Ansible LiveLessons is focused on hands-on training by providing the learner with 3 hours of practical tutorials in the form of lightboard explanations and demonstrations in order to get started with Ansible, including up-front access to all configuration files so they can jump right in.
Hands-on Ansible LiveLessons is focused on providing real-world training through practical tutorials in the form of lightboard explanations and demonstrations. In order to immediately get started with Kubernetes, up-front access to all configuration files is provided.
In Hands-on Ansible LiveLessons, Sander van Vugt clearly and succinctly explains Configuration Management, and the role that Ansible plays in it, as well as how to set up an Ansible environment. He’ll dig into Ad-hoc commands, and how to automate working with Ad-hoc commands by using playbooks, as well as variables and facts. Task control options, managing files using Ansible, and using roles are also covered. Lastly, the author will discuss Ansible Tower and how this web-based platform will help make managing Ansible easier. Sander van Vugt has presented on dozens of Linux, Ansible, and Kubernetes courses; live training sessions; and has written multiple books.
Learn How To
- Manage IT infrastructure with Ansible by following examples
- Understand Ansible in just a few hours
- Get a feel for Ansible before focusing on Ansible Certification exams
Lesson 1, “Understanding Configuration Management,” provides a short introduction to configuration management. It discusses the different options that exist, and how configuration management is different from managing configuration using shell scripts.
Lesson 2, “Setting up an Ansible Environment,” shows how to set up an Ansible environment. It includes information on basic host configuration, as well as the common components that are required to manage servers using Ansible.
Lesson 3, “Working with Ad-hoc Commands and Modules,” discusses how to work with Ad-hoc commands, which allow for Ansible to manage the managed devices without using playbook files. Working with Ansible modules is also covered.
Lesson 4, “Using Playbooks,” teaches you how to manage configuration with playbook, as well as YAML, and how to get started running some basic playbooks.
Lesson 5, “Managing Variables and Facts,” teaches you how to work with facts and variables.
Lesson 6, “Using Task Control,” shows how to make the execution of tasks conditional by using the different task control options that Ansible has to offer, including loops and items, when, as well as handlers.
Lesson 7, “Managing Files,” shows how to manage files with templates and Jinja2, as well as having a look at some essential modules for managing files.
Lesson 8, “Using Roles,” will discuss working with Roles, which allows for the standardized components in Ansible. This lesson also explains standard roles as provided by Ansible Galaxy.
Lesson 9, “Using Ansible Tower,” will discuss this powerful web-based platform that allows enterprise users to manage Ansible in an easy and scalable way.
