Outdated

This page is outdated. As of 2022-08-01, c3voc uses bundlewrap to deploy the room setups. Please follow the README inside the git repo to get started, or ask in #voc-lounge on hackint for support. The documentation below is only needed if you need to deploy one of the servers in a colo.

To manage hosts with ansible you need to install ansible > 2.3 on your machine.

See https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/intro_installation.html for instructions

Syntax validation.

ansible-playbook -i inventory/event -l mixers site.yml --syntax-check

Basic ansible call to deploy new config to a specific host.

./ansible-playbook-keepass -u root -i inventory/event -l 192.168.122.1 site.yml

Basic ansible call to deploy new config to a set of hosts on an event.

./ansible-playbook-keepass -u voc --become --become-method=sudo -i inventory/event -l saal1 site.yml

Also have a look at the 'Usefull combinations' section of this page.

In case you need to do a lot of playbook runs you can also set the password using the following although it is not recommended.

export KEEPASS_PW='…'
./ansible-playbook-keepass … site.yml

router.lan.c3voc.de

What you need:

  • install plain debian
  • setting hostname to router.lan.c3voc.de
  • make sure you have two network interfaces configured with names pbl (public) and int (internal)
  • run ansible to deploy config

monitoring.lan.c3voc.de

You have to name the monitoring host monitoring.lan.c3voc.de. After deployment, you have to run checkmk -I && checkmk -O inventory each host.

Have a look into TODO file.

  • ansible-doc -l lists all available modules
  • ansible-doc $module opens a very helpful knowledge page for a given module
