Install Centos using VMplayer

Here we will install centos 6. Redhat installation will be similar to centos


Below are few steps.

Step1: Open VMplayer and configure necessary settings (CPU,RAM, Disk etc)

Step2: Installation of OS. Run the VM

Step3: Once installation completes reboot the VM

Step4: After system comes up check the IP address. Currenlty there no IP address assigned.
We will check the config.
IP adress is 192.168.111.128 - This is dynamic IP which means in next reboot server may have different IP.

Step5: Create a static IP address for the server. We should know the gateway IP of the server and add it in eth0 config.
Gateway IP is 192.168.111.2

Step6: We will reboot and check if IP address is same
IP address is same.

Step7: Now you can use this IP to connect the virtual machine from putty (Host Machine)

Step8: Thats All. Hope you liked this.
Thanks

Using ansible ping module check connectivity between two nodes

Using ansible ping module check connectivity between two nodes Once server and client machine is configured with SSH passwordless authentication and  ansible installed in server, we will verify if ansible can connect from server to client. If you have not configured refer page Login to server node and create a directory to save all the work done in one location Eg:mywork [root@ansible ~]# mkdir mywork [root@ansible ~]# cd mywork/ Create new file called "hosts" under "mywork" and add your client host name in the file as shown below. [root@ansible mywork]# cat hosts [mynodes] node01 Now is the time to check if ansible from server machine able to communicate to client node01 To check this we will use ansible module called ping. Run command as shown below. [root@ansible mywork]# ansible all -i hosts -u root -m ping node01 | SUCCESS => {     "changed": false,     "ping": "pong" }
