I have accumulated several Ansible playbooks so far, and the complexity is starting to bite. I am now going to start using roles as the recommended way to manage the complexity.
I am going to start with three (3) roles:
To create these roles, I run the following commands on AUBURN:
cd /etc/ansible/roles ansible-galaxy init common ansible-galaxy init oracle_user ansible-galaxy init oracle_gi
The output is:
douglas@auburn:/etc/ansible/roles$ ansible-galaxy init common - common was created successfully douglas@auburn:/etc/ansible/roles$ ansible-galaxy init oracle_user - oracle_user was created successfully douglas@auburn:/etc/ansible/roles$ ansible-galaxy init oracle_gi - oracle_gi was created successfully
I created the main playbook for the oracle_user role in /etc/ansible/roles/oracle_user/tasks/main.yml with the following code:
--- # tasks file for oracle_user # ============================================================================= # (1) Creates the Oracle User through the Oracle pre-installation RPM # (2) Creates the installation directories # (3) Adds additional groups to the oracle user # (4) Mounts software directory on NFS # ============================================================================== - name: Set up ORACLE user block: - import_tasks: preinstall.yml - import_tasks: install_dir.yml - import_tasks: user_groups.yml - import_tasks: oracle_software_src.yml become: yes become_user: root ...
Here I use the block to apply the privilege escalation to all of the imported tasks.
I created the main playbook for the oracle_gi role in /etc/ansible/roles/oracle_gi/tasks/main.yml with the following code:
--- # tasks file for oracle_gi # ============================================================================= # (1) Install Oracle ASMLib Driver # (2) Configure Oracle ASMLib Driver # ============================================================================== - name: Install and configure Oracle ASMLib driver block: - import_tasks: gi_asm.yml - import_tasks: oracleasm.yml become: yes become_user: root ...
Here I use the block to apply the privilege escalation to all of the imported tasks.
I created the main playbook for the oracle_user role in /etc/ansible/sites.yml with the following code:
--- - hosts: redfern1.yaocm.id.au roles: - oracle_user - oracle_gi ...
I did not include privilege escalation here because some future tasks will have to run as the oracle user.
The complete playbook, sites.yml, was executed as follows:
ansible-playbook --ask-become-pass sites.yml
The output was:
