Ansible Playbooks for Automated Deployment of core servers for HASTE

Tested with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Ensure that SSH configuration and IP addresses are configured (in ~/.ssh/config and /etc/hosts) first. See 'hostnames.yml' for more details. Note that many hosts do not have public IPs, you will need to configure SSH forwarding via one of the servers with a public IP

NOTE for the Metadata Server: MongoDB authentication needs to be turned off to add the users, then needs to be turned back on again. See mongodb.conf.j2

Instructions for deploying the auto-configuration service are found in that repo.

For HPC2N use -i hosts_hpc2n

ansible -i hosts_hpc2n all -a "echo hi"

To deploy entire pipeline (dry run):

ansible-playbook -i hosts_hpc2n site.yml --check

To deploy for real:

ansible-playbook -i hosts_hpc2n site.yml
