32.1. Example Ansible playbook to persistently mount a file system
This section provides an example Ansible playbook. This playbook applies the storage role to immediately and persistently mount an XFS file system.
Example 32.1. A playbook that mounts a file system on /dev/sdb to /mnt/data
---
- hosts: all
vars:
storage_volumes:
- name: barefs
type: disk
disks:
- sdb
fs_type: xfs
mount_point: /mnt/data
roles:
- rhel-system-roles.storage-
This playbook adds the file system to the
/etc/fstabfile, and mounts the file system immediately. -
If the file system on the
/dev/sdbdevice or the mount point directory do not exist, the playbook creates them.
