A pair of virtual machines for practising with Ansible.
You'll need to install:
- Vagrant - https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html
- VirtualBox - https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
Then, clone this repository and run
vagrant up
This will create a "control" and a "host" VM. You can then use Ansible from the "control" machine to modify the "host" machine.
You can SSH to the control machine by running
vagrant ssh control
This machine comes pre-loaded with Ansible configured to control a host called "playground" - this is the host machine. A sample playbook is at /vagrant/playbooks/test.yml. Run it like this -
cd /vagrant/playbooks
ansible-playbook test.yml
To verify any changes to the host machine, you can SSH to it by running
vagrant ssh host
NOTE: you must exit the control machine before trying to SSH to the host machine - you can't run vagrant * commands from inside either machine.
