第2章 Using Ansible Roles to Automate Repetitive Tasks on Satellite Hosts
2.1. Assigning Ansible Roles to an Existing Host
You can use Ansible roles for remote management of Red Hat Enterprise Linux versions 8, 7, and 6.9 or later.
Prerequisites
- Ensure that you have configured and imported Ansible roles.
Procedure
- In the Satellite web UI, navigate to Hosts > All Hosts.
- On the host you want to assign an Ansible role to, click Edit.
- Select the Ansible Roles tab, and in the All items list, search for the roles that you want to add.
- Select the roles that you want to add, and click the arrow icon to move the roles to the Selected items list.
- Click Submit.
After you assign Ansible roles to hosts, you can use Ansible for remote execution. For more information, see 「Distributing SSH Keys for Remote Execution」.
Overiding Parameter Variables
On the Parameters tab, click Add Parameter to add any parameter variables that you want to pass to job templates at run time. This includes all Ansible playbook parameters and host parameters that you want to associate with the host. To use a parameter variable with an Ansible job template, you must add a Host Parameter.
