Tasks

Vagrant

Tasks are separated from easy to hard. You don't need to make them all, just one (ore two if you want). Harder tasks are better ;-). Results should be handed over as a link to your repository at Gitlab or Github with your solution and solution description in README.md file.

Low difficulty

• create Vagrantfile for single machine with the following software installed: tmux, htop

Medium difficulty

• create Vagrantfile for single machine with the following software installed
  • tmux installed though Shell provider
  • htop installed though Ansible provider
  • mc installed though Puppet provider

• create Vagrantfile which creates virtual machines server and host
  • server provides small network storage for host
  • host communicates with server over private network and has server's network storage mounter to /data

Hard difficulty

• create Vagrantfile which creates virtual machines server and variable number of host<num> machines defined by configuration of your choice
  • server provides private network storage for every host<num>
  • each host<num> communicates with server over private network and has server's network storage mounter to /data
  • Each host is accesible from 147.251.0.0/16 network via ssh on port of your choice.
  • ssh accepts connections only with public key defined in configuration

Ansible

Tasks are separated from easy to hard. You don't need to make them all, just one (ore two if you want). Harder tasks are better ;-). Results should be handed over as a link to your repository at Gitlab or Github with your solution and solution description in README.md file.

Low difficulty

• create a playbook which ensures (on localhost) that
  • tmux, htop packages are installed
  • user johnny is present
  • directory /mydata/stuff exists and contains empty file johnnys_stash is present
  • johnnys_stash is accesible only by johnny

Medium difficulty

• create a playbook which ensures (on localhost) that
  • tmux, htop packages are installed using custom role common_packages
  • user johnny is present using custom role common_users
  • directory /mydata/stuff using custom role common_stuff
  • johnnys_stash is accesible only by johnny using single task in playbook

Hard difficulty

• create Vagrantfile which creates virtual machines server and host. Use Ansible provider to configure the machines so that:

  • server and host contain user johnny
  • johnny has his ssh key on both servers and is able to ssh from one to another through private network by invoking a command ssh host or ssh server

• create Ansible module custom_figpucker with optional states: absent or present

  • when seleted state is present, machine on which is module applied will boot correctly only on every even run.
  • when seleted state is absent, the behavior described above is removed.

Puppet

• Using modules and puppet forge
• Writing manifest with resource types 'exec, package, file, service'
• Defining a classes with/without parameters
