User

The Ansible user is used to remotely execute various deployment tasks on cluster nodes.

Set the ansible_user variable in the all.yaml global configuration file.

Important

Use the username value defined in the OS General Settings server installation to set the ansible_user variable.

Encrypt the ansible_password variable with ansible-vault and set the encrypted value in the all.yaml global configuration file.

Generate the SSH key , which will be copied to each cluster node while running the Provisioning playbook:


ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C 'your_email@example.com'

Important

The Provisioning playbook will look for the generated SSH key in the default /Users/username/.ssh location.

For a different storage location, update the cluster_vars.ssh.path value in the Cluster role main.yaml configuration file.
