Ansible Init

Setup fresh server(s) to make it ready for Ansible.

It generates SSH Keys on local if not exists, copies to host, and install Python3.

Install Ansible

apt-add-repository --yes --update ppa:ansible/ansible
apt install ansible
ansible --version

Run this command for single server

ansible-playbook -i some-host:host-port, --ask-pass init.yml

Enter server password when prompted.

Note: A , (comma) after host/port is required

To init multiple servers then please setup the hosts (renamed from hosts.example) file in the following format

some-host-1:port ansible_password=host_root_password
some-host-2:port ansible_password=host_root_password

Then run this command

ansible-playbook init.yml
