Create and run an Ansible ad-hoc command.
--> As a system administrator, you will need to install software on the managed
nodes.
--> Create a shell script called yum-pack.sh that runs an Ansible ad-hoc command to
create yum-repository on each of the managed nodes as follows:
--> repository1

1. The name of the repository is EX407
2. The description is "Ex407 Description"

Create a playbook called packages.yml that:
----------------------------------------------
--> Installs the php and mariadb packages on hosts in the dev, test, and prod host
groups.
--> Installs the Development Tools package group on hosts in the dev host group.
--> Updates all packages to the latest version on hosts in the dev host group.
Create a file called packages.yml in /home/sandy/ansible to install some packages for the following hosts. On dev, prod and webservers install packages httpd, mod_ssl, and mariadb. On dev only install the development tools package. Also, on dev host update all the packages to the latest.

Create a playbook called balance.yml as follows:
* The playbook contains a play that runs on hosts in balancers host group and uses
the balancer role.
--> This role configures a service to loadbalance webserver requests between hosts
in the webservers host group.curl
--> When implemented, browsing to hosts in the balancers host group (for example
http://node5.example.com) should produce the following output:
Welcome to node3.example.com on 192.168.10.z
--> Reloading the browser should return output from the alternate web server:
Welcome to node4.example.com on 192.168.10.a
* The playbook contains a play that runs on hosts in webservers host group and uses
the phphello role.
--> When implemented, browsing to hosts in the webservers host group with the URL /
hello.php should produce the following output:
Hello PHP World from FQDN
--> where FQDN is the fully qualified domain name of the host. For example,
browsing to http://node3.example.com/hello.php, should produce the following output:
Hello PHP World from node3.example.com
* Similarly, browsing to http://node4.example.com/hello.php, should produce the
following output:
Hello PHP World from node4.example.com

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 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".
