```
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Insufficient disk space
|
||||
|
||||
Check available space:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible all -m shell -a "df -h /var/backups"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Clean old backups:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/backup.yml --tags cleanup
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Database backup fails
|
||||
|
||||
Check database connectivity:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# MySQL
|
||||
ansible all -m shell -a "mysqldump --version"
|
||||
|
||||
# PostgreSQL
|
||||
ansible all -m shell -a "sudo -u postgres pg_dumpall --version"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Backup integrity check fails
|
||||
|
||||
Manually verify:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible all -m shell -a "gzip -t /var/backups/config/*.gz"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Restore from Backup
|
||||
|
||||
See [Disaster Recovery Playbook](disaster_recovery.md) for restoration procedures.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Quick restore example
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/disaster_recovery.yml \
|
||||
--limit failed_host \
|
||||
--extra-vars "dr_backup_date=2025-01-11"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Test restores regularly** - Backups are useless if they can't be restored
|
||||
2. **Monitor backup sizes** - Watch for unexpected growth
|
||||
3. **Use remote storage** - Don't keep backups only on the same host
|
||||
4. **Verify backups** - Always enable verification
|
||||
5. **Document retention** - Follow compliance requirements
|
||||
6. **Encrypt sensitive backups** - Use encryption for databases
|
||||
7. **Schedule appropriately** - Run during low-activity periods
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Reference Commands
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Full backup with verification
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/backup.yml \
|
||||
--extra-vars "backup_type=full"
|
||||
|
||||
# Configuration only
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/backup.yml --tags config
|
||||
|
||||
# Databases only
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/backup.yml --tags databases
|
||||
|
||||
# Cleanup old backups (30+ days)
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/backup.yml --tags cleanup
|
||||
|
||||
# Custom retention (90 days)
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/backup.yml --tags cleanup \
|
||||
--extra-vars "backup_retention_days=90"
|
||||
|
||||
# Dry-run
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/backup.yml --check
|
||||
|
||||
# Specific host only
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/backup.yml --limit hostname
|
||||
|
||||

# Disaster Recovery Playbook Cheatsheet
|
||||
|
||||
Quick reference for using the disaster recovery playbook.
|
||||
|
||||
## ⚠️ WARNING
|
||||
|
||||
This playbook performs **DESTRUCTIVE OPERATIONS**. Only use when recovering from a disaster or system failure.
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Assess damage only (safe)
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/disaster_recovery.yml --limit failed_host --tags assess
|
||||
|
||||
# Full recovery
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/disaster_recovery.yml --limit failed_host \
|
||||
--extra-vars "dr_backup_date=2025-01-11"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Backups available** - Ensure backups exist in `/var/backups/`
|
||||
2. **System accessible** - Host must be reachable via SSH

## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Backup not found
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check backup location
|
||||
ansible failed_host -m shell -a "ls -la /var/backups/"
|
||||
|
||||
# Restore from remote backup server
|
||||
ansible failed_host -m synchronize \
|
||||
-a "src=/mnt/backup-server/backups/ dest=/var/backups/ mode=pull"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### SSH connection lost during recovery
|
||||
|
||||
The SSH service restart is designed to maintain connections. If lost:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Wait 60 seconds for SSH to restart
|
||||
# Retry connection
|
||||
|
||||
ansible failed_host -m ping
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Service won't start after recovery
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check service status
|
||||
ansible failed_host -m shell -a "systemctl status service_name"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check service logs
|
||||
ansible failed_host -m shell -a "journalctl -u service_name -n 50"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### SELinux blocking services
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Relabel SELinux contexts
|
||||
ansible failed_host -m shell -a "restorecon -R /etc /var"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Post-Recovery Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Verify all services running
|
||||
- [ ] Test application functionality
|
||||
- [ ] Check disk space
|
||||
- [ ] Review system logs
|
||||
- [ ] Verify backups are current
|
||||
- [ ] Update documentation
|
||||
- [ ] Notify stakeholders
|
||||
- [ ] Conduct lessons learned review
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Test recovery procedures regularly** - Monthly DR drills
|
||||
2. **Document recovery time objectives (RTO)** - Know your targets
|
||||
3. **Keep backups off-site** - Don't rely on local backups only
|
||||
4. **Verify backup integrity** - Test restores before disasters
|
||||
5. **Maintain runbooks** - Document specific recovery procedures
|
||||
6. **Practice on staging** - Test recovery in non-production first
|
||||
7. **Have communication plan** - Know who to notify
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
### Using jq for Data Extraction
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Get CPU models across all hosts
|
||||
jq -r '.cpu.model' ./stats/machines/*/system_info.json
|
||||
|
||||
# Get memory usage
|
||||
jq -r '"\(.host_info.fqdn): \(.memory.usage_percent)%"' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json
|
||||
|
||||
# Find hypervisors
|
||||
jq -r 'select(.hypervisor.is_hypervisor == true) | .host_info.fqdn' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json
|
||||
|
||||
# Find virtual machines
|
||||
jq -r 'select(.hypervisor.is_virtual == true) | .host_info.fqdn' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json
|
||||
|
||||
# Get OS distribution
|
||||
jq -r '"\(.host_info.fqdn): \(.system.distribution) \(.system.distribution_version)"' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json
|
||||
|
||||
# Find hosts with high CPU count
|
||||
jq -r 'select(.cpu.count.vcpus > 8) | "\(.host_info.fqdn): \(.cpu.count.vcpus) vCPUs"' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json
|
||||
|
||||
# Find hosts with low disk space
|
||||
jq -r 'select(.disk.usage_percent > 80) | "\(.host_info.fqdn): \(.disk.usage_percent)%"' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Generate Reports
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# CSV export: Hostname, OS, CPU, Memory
|
||||
jq -r '["FQDN","OS","CPU Cores","Memory GB"],
|
||||
([.host_info.fqdn, .system.distribution,
|
||||
.cpu.count.vcpus, (.memory.total_mb/1024|round)]) | @csv' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json > infrastructure_report.csv
|
||||
|
||||
# Count CPUs across infrastructure
|
||||
jq -s 'map(.cpu.count.total_cores | tonumber) | add' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json
|
||||
|
||||
# Total memory across infrastructure (GB)
|
||||
jq -s 'map(.memory.total_mb | tonumber) | add / 1024 | round' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json
|
||||
|
||||
# List GPU-enabled hosts
|
||||
jq -r 'select(.gpu.detected == true) | "\(.host_info.fqdn): \(.gpu.devices[0].model)"' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json
|
||||
|
||||
# SELinux status report
|
||||
jq -r '"\(.host_info.fqdn): SELinux \(.security.selinux)"' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json | grep -v "N/A"
|
||||
|
||||
# AppArmor status report
|
||||
jq -r '"\(.host_info.fqdn): AppArmor \(.security.apparmor)"' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json | grep -v "N/A"
|
||||
```

host=$(jq -r '.host_info.fqdn' "$stats_file")
|
||||
cpu=$(jq -r '.cpu.count.vcpus' "$stats_file")
|
||||
mem=$(jq -r '.memory.total_mb' "$stats_file")
|
||||
|
||||
cat <<EOF > /var/lib/node_exporter/textfile_collector/${host}.prom
|
||||
# HELP system_info_cpu_count Number of CPU cores
|
||||
# TYPE system_info_cpu_count gauge
|
||||
system_info_cpu_count{host="$host"} $cpu
|
||||
|
||||
# HELP system_info_memory_mb Total memory in MB
|
||||
# TYPE system_info_memory_mb gauge
|
||||
system_info_memory_mb{host="$host"} $mem
|
||||
EOF
|
||||
done
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Check Playbook Execution
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Dry-run (check mode)
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml --check
|
||||
|
||||
# Verbose output
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml -v
|
||||
|
||||
# Very verbose (debug)
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml -vvv
|
||||
|
||||
# Single host debugging
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml \
|
||||
--limit problematic-host -vvv
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Common Issues
|
||||
|
||||
**Missing packages**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Install packages manually first
|
||||
ansible all -m package -a "name=lshw,dmidecode,pciutils state=present" --become
|
||||
|
||||
# Or run with install tag only
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml --tags install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Permission errors**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Ensure become is enabled
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml --become
|
||||
|
||||
# Check sudo access
|
||||
ansible all -m ping --become
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Statistics not saved**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check if directory exists
|
||||
ls -la ./stats/machines/
|
||||
|
||||
# Check disk space
|
||||
df -h .
|
||||
|
||||
# Create directory manually
|
||||
mkdir -p ./stats/machines
|
||||
|
||||
# Specify alternative directory
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml \
|
||||
-e "system_info_stats_base_dir=/tmp/stats"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Slow execution**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Skip slow operations
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml \
|
||||
--skip-tags install,network
|
||||
|
||||
# Disable GPU gathering
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml \
|
||||
-e "system_info_gather_gpu=false"
|
||||
|
||||
# Increase parallelism
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml -f 20
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Validation
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Verify JSON files are valid
|
||||
for f in ./stats/machines/*/system_info.json; do
|
||||
echo "Checking $f"
|
||||
jq empty "$f" && echo "✓ OK" || echo "✗ INVALID"
|
||||
done
|
||||
|
||||
# Check for missing files
|
||||
for host in $(ansible all --list-hosts | tail -n +2); do
|
||||
if [ ! -f "./stats/machines/${host}/system_info.json" ]; then
|
||||
echo "Missing: $host"
|
||||
fi
|
||||
done
|
||||
|
||||
# Verify data completeness
|
||||
jq -r 'if .cpu == null then "Missing CPU data" else "OK" end' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
### Parallel Execution
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Default (5 hosts at a time)
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml
|
||||
|
||||
# Increase parallelism
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/gather_system_info.yml -f 20
|
||||
|
||||
# Serial execution (one at a time)
|

||||
# Run maintenance and check reboot status
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml
|
||||
|
||||
# Look for: "Reboot required: true" in output
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Perform Reboot
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# WARNING: This will reboot hosts one at a time!
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml --tags reboot
|
||||
|
||||
# Reboot specific environment
|
||||
ansible-playbook -i inventories/staging playbooks/maintenance.yml --tags reboot
|
||||
|
||||
# Control reboot parallelism
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml --tags reboot \
|
||||
--extra-vars "maintenance_serial=1"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Serial Execution
|
||||
|
||||
Control how many hosts are updated simultaneously:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Update all hosts in parallel (default)
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml
|
||||
|
||||
# Update one host at a time
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml \
|
||||
--extra-vars "maintenance_serial=1"
|
||||
|
||||
# Update 25% of hosts at a time
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml \
|
||||
--extra-vars "maintenance_serial=25%"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Output and Logs
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
=========================================
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Package updates fail
|
||||
|
||||
Check update repositories:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Debian/Ubuntu
|
||||
ansible all -m shell -a "apt update"
|
||||
|
||||
# RHEL/CentOS
|
||||
ansible all -m shell -a "dnf check-update"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Disk space warnings
|
||||
|
||||
Free up space manually before maintenance:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml --tags cleanup
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Service not running after update
|
||||
|
||||
Check service status:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible all -m shell -a "systemctl status <service>"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Scheduling Maintenance
|
||||
|
||||
### Cron Example
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Daily security updates at 2 AM
|
||||
0 2 * * * cd /opt/ansible && ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### SystemD Timer Example
|
||||
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
# /etc/systemd/system/ansible-maintenance.timer
|
||||
[Unit]
|
||||
Description=Ansible Maintenance
|
||||
|
||||
[Timer]
|
||||
OnCalendar=daily
|
||||
Persistent=true
|
||||
|
||||
[Install]
|
||||
WantedBy=timers.target
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Test in staging first** - Always run in staging before production
|
||||
2. **Monitor during updates** - Watch for failures
|
||||
3. **Check reboot requirements** - Plan reboots during maintenance windows
|
||||
4. **Review logs** - Check maintenance logs for issues
|
||||
5. **Use serial execution** for production - Update hosts gradually
|
||||
6. **Schedule appropriately** - Run during low-traffic periods
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Reference Commands
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Dry-run (no changes)
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml --check
|
||||
|
||||
# Staging environment
|
||||
ansible-playbook -i inventories/staging playbooks/maintenance.yml
|
||||
|
||||
# Production (one host at a time)
|
||||
ansible-playbook -i inventories/production playbooks/maintenance.yml \
|
||||
--extra-vars "maintenance_serial=1"
|
||||
|
||||
# Updates only, no cleanup
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml --tags updates
|
||||
|
||||
# Full upgrade (non-security too)
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml \
|
||||
--extra-vars "maintenance_security_only=false"
|
||||
|
||||
# Cleanup only
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml --tags cleanup
|
||||
|
||||
# Check if reboot needed
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml --tags verify
|
||||
|
||||
# Reboot if needed
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/maintenance.yml --tags reboot
|
||||
```

## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### No audit reports generated
|
||||
|
||||
Check report directory exists:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ls -la ./reports/security_audit/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Failed checks
|
||||
|
||||
Review specific failed checks:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/security_audit.yml -vv
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Permission denied
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure become is enabled:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/security_audit.yml --become
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Integration with CI/CD
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# GitLab CI example
|
||||
security_audit:
|
||||
stage: compliance
|
||||
script:
|
||||
- ansible-playbook playbooks/security_audit.yml
|
||||
only:
|
||||
- schedules
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Schedule regular audits** - Run weekly or after changes
|
||||
2. **Review reports** - Don't just run audits, act on findings
|
||||
3. **Track trends** - Compare audit results over time
|
||||
4. **Document exceptions** - Note why certain checks fail
|
||||
5. **Remediate findings** - Create tasks to fix issues
|
||||
|
||||

# Deploy Linux VM Role Cheatsheet
|
||||
|
||||
Quick reference guide for the `deploy_linux_vm` role - automated Linux VM deployment on KVM hypervisors with LVM and security hardening.
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Deploy a VM with defaults (Debian 12)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm
|
||||
|
||||
# Deploy specific distribution
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm \
|
||||
-e "deploy_linux_vm_os_distribution=ubuntu-22.04"
|
||||
|
||||
# Deploy with custom resources
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm \
|
||||
-e "deploy_linux_vm_name=webserver01" \
|
||||
-e "deploy_linux_vm_vcpus=4" \
|
||||
-e "deploy_linux_vm_memory_mb=8192"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Execution Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
### Basic Deployment
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Single VM deployment
|
||||
ansible-playbook -i inventories/production site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm
|
||||
|
||||
# Deploy to specific hypervisor
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -l grokbox -t deploy_linux_vm
|
||||
|
||||
# Check mode (dry-run validation)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm --check
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Distribution-Specific Deployment
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Debian family
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm \
|
||||
-e "deploy_linux_vm_os_distribution=debian-12"
|
||||
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm \
|
||||
-e "deploy_linux_vm_os_distribution=ubuntu-24.04"
|
||||
|
||||
# RHEL family
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm \
|
||||
-e "deploy_linux_vm_os_distribution=almalinux-9"
|
||||
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm \
|
||||
-e "deploy_linux_vm_os_distribution=rocky-9"
|
||||
|
||||
# SUSE family
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm \
|
||||
-e "deploy_linux_vm_os_distribution=opensuse-leap-15.6"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Selective Execution with Tags
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Pre-flight validation only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm,validate,preflight
|
||||
|
||||
# Download cloud images only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm,download,verify
|
||||
|
||||
# Deploy VM without LVM configuration
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm --skip-tags lvm
|
||||
|
||||
# Configure LVM only (post-deployment)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm,lvm,post-deploy
|
||||
|
||||
# Cleanup temporary files only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm,cleanup
|
||||
```

```
|
||||
|
||||
## Post-Deployment Verification
|
||||
|
||||
### Check VM Status
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# List all VMs on hypervisor
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh list --all"
|
||||
|
||||
# Get VM information
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh dominfo <vm_name>"
|
||||
|
||||
# Get VM IP address
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh domifaddr <vm_name>"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Verify SSH Access
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Test SSH connectivity
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP>
|
||||
|
||||
# Test with ProxyJump through hypervisor
|
||||
ssh -J grokbox ansible@<VM_IP>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Verify LVM Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# SSH to VM and check LVM
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo vgs && sudo lvs && sudo pvs"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check fstab entries
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "cat /etc/fstab"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check disk layout
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "lsblk"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check mounted filesystems
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "df -h"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Verify Security Hardening
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check SSH configuration
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo sshd -T | grep -i gssapi"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check firewall (Debian/Ubuntu)
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo ufw status verbose"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check firewall (RHEL/AlmaLinux)
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo firewall-cmd --list-all"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check SELinux status (RHEL family)
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo getenforce"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check AppArmor status (Debian family)
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo aa-status"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check auditd
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo systemctl status auditd"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check automatic updates (Debian/Ubuntu)
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo systemctl status unattended-upgrades"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check automatic updates (RHEL/AlmaLinux)
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo systemctl status dnf-automatic.timer"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Check Cloud-Init Status
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Wait for cloud-init to complete
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "cloud-init status --wait"
|
||||
|
||||
# View cloud-init logs
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "tail -100 /var/log/cloud-init-output.log"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check cloud-init errors
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "cloud-init analyze show"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### VM Won't Start
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check VM status
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh list --all"
|
||||
|
||||
# View VM console logs
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh console <vm_name>"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check libvirt logs
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "tail -50 /var/log/libvirt/qemu/<vm_name>.log"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### LVM Issues
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check LVM status
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo pvs && sudo vgs && sudo lvs"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check if second disk exists
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "lsblk"
|
||||
|
||||
# Manually trigger LVM setup (if post-deploy failed)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -l grokbox -t deploy_linux_vm,lvm,post-deploy \
|
||||
-e "deploy_linux_vm_name=<vm_name>"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Network Connectivity Issues
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check VM network interfaces
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "ip addr show"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check VM can reach internet
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "ping -c 3 8.8.8.8"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check DNS resolution
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "nslookup google.com"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check libvirt network
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh net-list --all"
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh net-dhcp-leases default"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### SSH Connection Refused
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check if sshd is running
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo systemctl status sshd"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check firewall rules
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo ufw status" # Debian/Ubuntu
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo firewall-cmd --list-services" # RHEL
|
||||
|
||||
# Check SSH port listening
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo ss -tlnp | grep :22"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Disk Space Issues
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check hypervisor disk space
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "df -h /var/lib/libvirt/images"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check VM disk space
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "df -h"
|
||||
|
||||
# List large files
|
||||
ssh ansible@<VM_IP> "sudo du -sh /* | sort -h"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## VM Management
|
||||
|
||||
### Start/Stop/Reboot VM
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Start VM
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh start <vm_name>"
|
||||
|
||||
# Shutdown VM gracefully
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh shutdown <vm_name>"
|
||||
|
||||
# Force stop VM
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh destroy <vm_name>"
|
||||
|
||||
# Reboot VM
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh reboot <vm_name>"
|
||||
|
||||
# Enable autostart
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh autostart <vm_name>"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Delete VM
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Stop and delete VM (DESTRUCTIVE)
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh destroy <vm_name>"
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh undefine <vm_name> --remove-all-storage"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### VM Snapshots
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Create snapshot
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh snapshot-create-as <vm_name> snapshot1 'Before updates'"
|
||||
|
||||
# List snapshots
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh snapshot-list <vm_name>"
|
||||
|
||||
# Restore snapshot
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh snapshot-revert <vm_name> snapshot1"
|
||||
|
||||
# Delete snapshot
|
||||
ansible grokbox -m shell -a "virsh snapshot-delete <vm_name> snapshot1"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
### Parallel Deployment
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Deploy multiple VMs in parallel (default: 5 at a time)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm -f 5
|
||||
|
||||
# Serial deployment (one at a time)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm -f 1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Skip Slow Operations
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Skip package installation (if already installed)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm --skip-tags install
|
||||
|
||||
# Skip image download (if already cached)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t deploy_linux_vm --skip-tags download
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

# System Info Role Cheatsheet
|
||||
|
||||
Quick reference guide for the `system_info` role - comprehensive system information gathering.
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Run complete information gathering
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info
|
||||
|
||||
# Run on specific hosts
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -l webservers -t system_info
|
||||
|
||||
# Run with validation only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,validate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Execution Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
### Full Execution
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# All hosts, all information
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info
|
||||
|
||||
# Single host
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -l hostname.example.com -t system_info
|
||||
|
||||
# Specific group
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -l production -t system_info
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Selective Information Gathering
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# CPU information only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,cpu
|
||||
|
||||
# GPU information only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,gpu
|
||||
|
||||
# Memory and swap only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,memory
|
||||
|
||||
# Disk information only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,disk
|
||||
|
||||
# Network information only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,network
|
||||
|
||||
# Hypervisor detection only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,hypervisor
|
||||
|
||||
# System information only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,system
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Combined Tags
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# CPU, Memory, and Disk
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,cpu,memory,disk
|
||||
|
||||
# Skip installation, gather only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info --skip-tags install
|
||||
|
||||
# Validation and health check
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,validate,health-check
|
||||
|
||||
# Export statistics only (requires prior gathering)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,export
|
||||
```
|
||||

```
|
||||
|
||||
## Example Playbooks
|
||||
|
||||
### Basic Playbook
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
---
|
||||
- name: Gather system information
|
||||
hosts: all
|
||||
become: true
|
||||
roles:
|
||||
- system_info
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Advanced Playbook
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
---
|
||||
- name: Gather detailed system information
|
||||
hosts: all
|
||||
become: true
|
||||
roles:
|
||||
- role: system_info
|
||||
vars:
|
||||
system_info_stats_base_dir: /var/lib/ansible/inventory
|
||||
system_info_json_indent: 4
|
||||
system_info_gather_gpu: true
|
||||
system_info_detect_hypervisor: true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Targeted Playbook
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
---
|
||||
- name: Gather hypervisor information only
|
||||
hosts: hypervisors
|
||||
become: true
|
||||
tasks:
|
||||
- name: Include system_info role for hypervisor detection
|
||||
include_role:
|
||||
name: system_info
|
||||
tasks_from: detect_hypervisor
|
||||
tags: [hypervisor]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Check Role Execution
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Dry-run (check mode)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info --check
|
||||
|
||||
# Verbose output
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info -v
|
||||
|
||||
# Very verbose (debug)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info -vvv
|
||||
|
||||
# Single host debugging
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -l problematic-host -t system_info -vvv
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Common Issues
|
||||
|
||||
**Missing packages**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Install packages manually first
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,install
|
||||
|
||||
# Check what would be installed
|
||||
ansible all -m package_facts
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Permission errors**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Ensure become is enabled
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info --become
|
||||
|
||||
# Check sudo access
|
||||
ansible all -m ping --become
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Statistics not saved**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check if directory exists
|
||||
ls -la ./stats/machines/
|
||||
|
||||
# Check disk space on control node
|
||||
df -h .
|
||||
|
||||
# Verify write permissions
|
||||
touch ./stats/machines/test && rm ./stats/machines/test
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Validation
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Run only validation tasks
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,validate
|
||||
|
||||
# Check specific host health
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -l server01 -t validate,health-check
|
||||
|
||||
# Verify JSON files
|
||||
for f in ./stats/machines/*/system_info.json; do
|
||||
echo "Checking $f"
|
||||
jq empty "$f" && echo "OK" || echo "INVALID"
|
||||
done
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
### Parallel Execution
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Increase parallelism (default: 5)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info -f 20
|
||||
|
||||
# Serial execution (one at a time)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info -f 1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Skip Slow Tasks
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Skip installation if packages are pre-installed
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info --skip-tags install
|
||||
|
||||
# Skip network gathering (can be slow)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info --skip-tags network
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Integration Examples
|
||||
|
||||
### Cron Job for Regular Collection
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Daily collection at 2 AM
|
||||
0 2 * * * cd /opt/ansible && ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info >> /var/log/ansible/system_info.log 2>&1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Generate HTML Report
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Convert JSON to HTML
|
||||
for host in ./stats/machines/*; do
|
||||
hostname=$(basename "$host")
|
||||
jq -r 'to_entries | map("\(.key): \(.value)") | .[]' \
|
||||
"$host/system_info.json" > "$host/report.txt"
|
||||
done
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Compare Statistics
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Compare CPU across hosts
|
||||
jq -r '"\(.host_info.fqdn),\(.cpu.model),\(.cpu.count.vcpus)"' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json | column -t -s,
|
||||
|
||||
# Compare memory across hosts
|
||||
jq -r '"\(.host_info.fqdn),\(.memory.total_mb) MB,\(.memory.usage_percent)%"' \
|
||||
./stats/machines/*/system_info.json | column -t -s,
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Checkpoints
|
||||
|
||||
- ✓ Role runs with `become: true` for hardware access
|
||||
- ✓ No credentials or secrets are collected
|
||||
- ✓ Statistics files contain infrastructure details - protect appropriately
|
||||
- ✓ Sensitive data (serial numbers, UUIDs) included - review before sharing
|
||||
- ✓ Files stored on control node only - not on managed hosts
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Reference Commands
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Full scan
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info
|
||||
|
||||
# CPU + Memory only
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,cpu,memory
|
||||
|
||||
# Validate all hosts
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,validate
|
||||
|
||||
# Export only (no gathering)
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -t system_info,export
|
||||
|
||||
# Single host, verbose
|
||||
ansible-playbook site.yml -l hostname -t system_info -v
|
||||
|
||||
# View latest stats
|
||||
cat ./stats/machines/$(hostname -f)/summary.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Ansible Ad-Hoc Alternatives
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Quick CPU check
|
||||
ansible all -m shell -a "lscpu | grep 'Model name'"
|
||||
|
||||
# Quick memory check
|
||||
ansible all -m shell -a "free -h"
|
||||
|
||||
# Quick disk check
|
||||
ansible all -m shell -a "df -h"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check virtualization
|
||||
ansible all -m shell -a "systemd-detect-virt"
|
||||
```
