Impact on the individual
You will be able to apply automation-first principles to solve real-world Linux system and services problems through the effective creation of Ansible playbooks. You will gain the skills to automate your workflows, build the foundation for DevOps practices, and learn how to leverage Ansible for developmental efficiencies.
Detailed Course Outline
An introduction to Ansible
Describe the fundamental concepts of Ansible and how it is used, install and configure Ansible development tools in VS Code, and configure Ansible settings.
Developing automation content
Build Ansible inventories, write and run simple and complex playbooks, and troubleshoot playbooks and host failures.
Developing Automation Content: Variables
Write playbooks that use variables to simplify management of the playbook, protect sensitive data in variables, and use facts and magic variables to reference information about managed hosts.
Developing Automation Content: Task Control
Write plays that use task control features to efficiently specify a task that must run once for each item in a list, or that only runs if certain conditions are met.
Developing Automation Content: Deploying Files
Deploy, customize, and adjust files on hosts managed by Ansible.
Developing Automation Content at Scale
Manage complex Ansible Playbooks by importing or including other playbooks and tasks, as well as by using advanced host patterns to efficiently select specific hosts from your inventory.
Reusing Code with Ansible Roles and Content Collections
Use Ansible Roles and Ansible Content Collections to develop playbooks more quickly and to reuse Ansible code.
Automate Linux administration tasks
Automate common Linux system administration tasks with Ansible.
Contenu
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Automation with Ansible (AU294) is designed for Linux administrators and developers who need to automate repeatable and error-prone steps for system provisioning, configuration, application deployment, and orchestration.
