It uses SSH for connection, making it easy to deploy without requiring agent installation on the servers. For those looking to install Ansible on Rocky Linux 8.10, this guide provides a straightforward approach to get you started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"prerequisites\">Prerequisites<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before installing Ansible, ensure that you have:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>A <a href=\"https:\/\/brightwhiz.com\/tag\/rocky-linux\">Rocky Linux<\/a> 8.10 system to serve as the control node.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A non-root user with sudo privileges on the control node.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An SSH keypair associated with the sudo user.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-1-update-your-system\">Step 1: Update Your System<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep your system up-to-date with the latest packages by running:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-prismatic-blocks\"><code class=\"language-bash\">$ sudo dnf update -y<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>After updating, it&#8217;s a good practice to reboot your system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-2-enable-epel-repository\">Step 2: Enable EPEL Repository<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ansible is not available in the default package repositories of Rocky Linux 8.10, so you&#8217;ll need to enable the EPEL repository:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-prismatic-blocks\"><code class=\"language-bash\">$ sudo dnf install -y epel-release<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-3-install-ansible\">Step 3: Install Ansible<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the EPEL repository enabled, you can now install Ansible:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-prismatic-blocks\"><code class=\"language-bash\">$ sudo dnf install ansible -y<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Verify the installation by checking the Ansible version:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-prismatic-blocks\"><code class=\"language-bash\">$ ansible --version<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-4-configure-ansible\">Step 4: Configure Ansible<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you installed Ansible using&nbsp;<code>dnf<\/code>, the default configuration file&nbsp;<code>ansible.cfg<\/code>&nbsp;should be created automatically in&nbsp;<code>\/etc\/ansible<\/code>. If you installed it using&nbsp;<code>pip<\/code>, you might need to create this file manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-5-test-your-setup\">Step 5: Test Your Setup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure Ansible is set up correctly, try pinging a managed host:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-prismatic-blocks\"><code class=\"language-bash\">$ ansible all -m ping<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>By following these steps, you should have a working Ansible setup on your Rocky Linux 8.10 system. For more detailed instructions and advanced configurations, refer to the comprehensive guides available for the <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.ansible.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ansible documentation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, Ansible&#8217;s modular approach allows you to extend its capabilities to suit your specific needs, making it a powerful tool for system administrators and DevOps professionals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ansible is an open-source automation tool that simplifies complex tasks such as configuration management, application deployment, and task automation.
