Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: “Mount the downloaded WebStorm-10*.dmg disk image file as another disk in your system.”

A block of code is set as follows:

  required_providers {
    aws = {
      source  = "hashicorp/aws"
      version = "~> 4.16"
    }
  }

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

- name: Install all security and critical updates without a scheduled task
  ansible.windows.win_updates:
    category_names:
      - SecurityUpdates
      - CriticalUpdates

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

dnf update –y
dnf groupinstall "Development Tools" "Development Libraries" –y

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For instance, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in bold. Here is an example: “Select System info from the Administration panel.”
