@daviddemoss7731 4 роки тому

Awesome videos. Been trying to come up to speed on ansible using your resources. So far ansible seems to have a high learning curve, but your resources are incredible! thanks for making this all available!

I’ve used several of your Ansible galaxy roles so when I saw this I knew it would be good. Thank you for doing this!!

The most awaited Video from Jeff Geerling... Thanks a lot.

@felix30471 2 роки тому

Thanks a ton for producing these videos and making them available for free! This has helped me understand more about Ansible and using it than I could in like three hours of reading docs (ok, maybe I'm just bad at that...), and on top of that you even did a bit of Vagrant!

@T313COmun1s7 Рік тому

Been interested in Ansible for a while. I just did a basic introduction course and realized how much the paradigm aligns so well with what I would do if I built it. So I decided to watch this. I enjoy your other videos. You showed a Pi 4, and I could help but think, wow, back when you could just buy them.

@ssmytheYT 4 роки тому

Great intro to Ansible and I wish you the best of success with the book! :-D I am grateful for all your contributions to the open source world and look forward to your future works!

Just made two playbooks. One to update all of my servers and the second for CI for my website to automatically update on my server! It's amazing it updates in a second!!! Automatically with a webhook! Like magic! Used to be at least a 5 minute operation to update the website and now it's automagically done ✅

@JeffGeerling 3 роки тому

Good luck!

@lordofenron Рік тому

Hi Jeff.. I found out about Ansible about two years ago but didn't have the energy to learn anything, so now I'm back after two years and ready to learn. I started with videos on pluralsight, and they were pretty bad, but yours is pretty amazing :D I already learned a lot more than the last two hrs spent om pluralsight. Anyway, what I really wanted to say is that you seem like the best guy ever :) All your comments about helping others, giving the book away for free and "I'm gonna pray for you whether you like it or not". I mean, it's pretty heartwarming :) Thanks.

@bretthansen633 Рік тому

Thank you so much for this! So helpful!!! You mentioned the coronavirus and it reminded me how much things have changed! In late February 2020 both my parents got it so bad that I woke up in a cold sweat realizing I may have to plan 2 funerals... Thank God they both got through it!! My mom I still dealing with long haul covid but things have gotten much better. Anyway I love your videos they are soooo helpful! I've been working on/staying in a crazy upgraded 1974 GMC Motorhome for 3 or so years now. Thanks to you and a few others I've got my old motorhome almost fully automated!!! Thanks!!! Now I'm leaning this to do a 10 odroid n2+ cluster to replace my T420 dell server lol

Well done Jeff, like the format of watching “over your shoulder” so to speak, quick way to learn by watching others.

@danielstoddart 3 роки тому

I agree, the 'over the shoulder' style of producing tech videos, especially developer videos, is the way to go. I find myself learning more, and learning it more quickly, this way.

Much enjoy reviewing your "live stream" vids Jeff.

@JeffGeerling 4 роки тому

@Oliver Davies asked during the stream "Any reason for using yum module over 'package' module?" - In this case, not really; package is convenient for multi-platform playbooks. Sometimes it is good to specify yum/dnf/apt/pacman/etc. instead of the generic 'package' module if you need to specify distro-specific options, or if playbook is intended to only work on one platform/distro.

@DaPanda19 2 роки тому

Lmao

@mastershake156 2 роки тому

why whoops? what happened?

@ExtremeSquared 2 роки тому

@@mastershake156 In a nutshell, RedHat retroactively revoked long term support for Centos, Centos was superseded by 'Centos Stream', and traditional Centos was functionally replaced by other projects -- Rocky, I think. I'm not a Centos expert, though. Team Debian Stable.

Heyyy Jeff the "Ansible" exists in Ender's Game (1985), yes, but the idea really comes from Le Guin's novel called "Rocannon's World" from 1966, and expanded upon in 1977 with "The Dispossessed". Le Guin revolutionized science fiction and loads of stuff from her is often misattributed to other artists (see James Cameron's "Avatar" and Le Guin's "The World For World is Forest")

@JeffGeerling For those on Windows, you can use Chocolatey.org package manager (the installation is copy&paste of one PowerShell line) with 'choco install virtualbox vagrant -y' and have the environment available in no time. In a directory of your choosing, you can then run 'vagrant init geerlingguy/ubuntu1804', 'vagrant up' and 'vagrant ssh' and have an environment for just playing with Ansible. You can always use Ansible on the local machine, just use 'localhost' as the host. On Windows, it is a bit harder to then spin up other machines, that you can talk to. You might want to have a look at private networking in your Vagrantfiles or just use the Windows Subsystem for Linux for Ansible and vagrant to spin up your test machines. You might also use so called nested virtualization, but that can make stuff more complex stil. If you are interested in that, here is a great video by David Bombal: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/gn2FZqegpH99moU.html

@Alex-os5co Рік тому

Fantastic video - thanks Jeff. Hope you're feeling better. I brought the book to follow along with as well. I wonder whether it's worth mentioning that Virtual Box doesn't support apple silicon in your book? I know you mention it's the perfect choice as it's open source, free and works on Windows, Linux & Mac but that's not really the case anymore for any new Mac purchase (well almost). Just a thought, otherwise loving the content.
