open bash terminal in VSCODE + clone code repository locally

(in vscode) terminal --> new terminal

(in new terminal)
cd Documents git clone https://github.com/auto-store/lod-ansible

ssh into "Rhel5"

ssh [email protected]
password: Netapp1!

create persistent docker volumes

docker volume create ssh-keys docker volume create ansible

Run docker container

docker run -it -v ansible:/etc/ansible -v ssh-keys:/root/.ssh schmot1s/netapp-ansible /bin/bash

clone github repo

cd /etc/ansible git clone https://github.com/auto-store/lod-ansible-"user#"

create and share ssh-keys with remote RHEL host

ssh-keygen ssh-copy-id [email protected]

copy hosts file to correct directory

cp /etc/ansible/lod-ansible-"user"/hosts /etc/ansible/

ping host to check connectivity with RHEL host

ansible -m ping rhel

install NFS utils on RHEL Host with ansible playbook (change into repository directory!)

ansible-playbook install-nfs-utils.yml

run playbook for single volume

change into repo directory ---> cd lod-ansible-"user" ansible-playbook flexvol-create.yml

run role to configure ONTAP cluster (insepct it in VSCODE to see what it does!)

you will need to edit a line in the cluster-role.yml "/etc/ansible/lod-ansible/cluster" and add your user number so the playbook finds the right path

e.g "/etc/ansible/lod-ansible-1/cluster"

do the same for the cluster-role-mount-nfs.yml as we will use this later.

save the changed file, then use the git integration in VSCODE to commit changes to the repository. (left sidebar, 3rd down) then use a bash shell in the terminal to execute "git push"

in the docker container, make sure you are in the repository directory. execute "git pull" to update the repo. then run the playbook that executes the cluster role.

ansible-playbook cluster-role.yml

run the ONTAP cluster role again then a role to mount an NFS export to RHEL host

ansible-playbook cluster-role-mount-nfs.yml

customise the cluster role!

create a new SVM, new volume, new lif. use your own name!

commit changes

save the changed files, then use the git integration in VSCODE to commit changes to the repository. (left sidebar, 3rd down) then use a bash shell in the terminal to execute "git push"

run playbook to create your new SVM etc.

in the docker container, make sure you are in the repository directory. execute "git pull" to update the repo. then run the playbook that executes the cluster role.

edit the mount_nfs role to add yourself as a user and mount your export to your home directory

:)

now push all changes to a "production" repo

git remote add origin https://github.com/auto-store/lod-ansible-production.git git push -u origin master
