Chapter 1. Introduction to RHEL system roles
By using RHEL system roles, you can remotely manage the system configurations of multiple RHEL systems across major versions of RHEL.
Important terms and concepts
The following describes important terms and concepts in an Ansible environment:
- Control node
- A control node is the system from which you run Ansible commands and playbooks. Your control node can be an Ansible Automation Platform, Red Hat Satellite, or a RHEL 10, 9, 8, or 7 host. For more information, see Preparing a control node on RHEL 10.
- Managed node
- Managed nodes are the servers and network devices that you manage with Ansible. Managed nodes are also sometimes called hosts. Ansible does not have to be installed on managed nodes. For more information, see Preparing a managed node.
- Ansible playbook
- In a playbook, you define the configuration you want to achieve on your managed nodes or a set of steps for the system on the managed node to perform. Playbooks are Ansible’s configuration, deployment, and orchestration language.
- Inventory
- In an inventory file, you list the managed nodes and specify information such as IP address for each managed node. In the inventory, you can also organize the managed nodes by creating and nesting groups for easier scaling. An inventory file is also sometimes called a hostfile.
