Example using loop: to pass the RHCE with Ansible

SUBSCRIBE for more videos like this.

To pass the Red Hat RHCE on RHEL8, you need to use Ansible to configure the servers.

Join me in this real-time demo as I take you through how to use loops from a basic level, up to an intermediate level. It's also good preparation if you're planning to take the RHCE soon.

Here's what's covered:

• We write a playbook to create a list of users using a loop.
• Then extend the loop by adding in UID for each user.
• Move the username and UIDs into a variables file and call that from the playbook.
• Add user passwords [ansible-vault] using a filter.
