Develop a playbook of tests to confirm network settings are correct.

astrodb commented 3 months ago

Here's a quick example of a playbook that will print all the active network interfaces on each machine checked:

hosts: all remote_user: root

tasks:
- name: List Network Interfaces shell: ip route show register: physical_interfaces_cmd changed_when: false check_mode: false
- name: Show network interface details for each host debug: msg={{ physical_interfaces_cmd.stdout.split('\n') }}

Playbooks written and initial tests indicate they work. They can be run on the admin node, where the system installed Ansible it setup for them. They are in /home/stack/network-check-playbooks
