This chapter includes examples based on the following technologies:
- CentOS 7.6
- Ansible 2.8
To run through these examples, you will need access to a server or virtual machine running the operating system listed previously, alongside Ansible. Note that the examples given in this chapter may be destructive in nature (for example, they delete files and make changes to server configuration) and if run as shown are only intended to be run in an isolated test environment.
Once you are satisfied that you have a safe environment to operate in, we can get started with routine system maintenance with Ansible.
All example code discussed in this chapter is available on GitHub at the following URL: https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Hands-On-Enterprise-Automation-on-Linux/tree/master/chapter14.
