第 5 章 Configuring the GRUB 2 boot loader by using RHEL system roles

Procedure

1. Create a playbook file, for example, ~/playbook.yml, with the following content:

   ---
   - name: Configuration and management of GRUB2 boot loader
     hosts: managed-node-01.example.com
     tasks:
       - name: Update existing boot loader entries
         ansible.builtin.include_role:
           name: redhat.rhel_system_roles.bootloader
         vars:
           bootloader_settings:
             - kernel:
                 path: /boot/vmlinuz-6.12.0-0.el10_0.aarch64
               options:
                 - name: quiet
                   state: present
           bootloader_reboot_ok: true

   The settings specified in the example playbook include the following:

   kernel

   Specifies the kernel connected with the boot loader entry that you want to update.

   options

   Specifies the kernel command-line parameters to update for your chosen boot loader entry (kernel).

   bootloader_reboot_ok: true

   The role detects that a reboot is needed for the changes to take effect and performs a restart of the managed node.

   For details about all variables used in the playbook, see the /usr/share/ansible/roles/rhel-system-roles.bootloader/README.md file on the control node.

2. Validate the playbook syntax:

   $ ansible-playbook --syntax-check ~/playbook.yml

   Note that this command only validates the syntax and does not protect against a wrong but valid configuration.

3. Run the playbook:

   $ ansible-playbook ~/playbook.yml
