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

Understanding TCP & UDP

 TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is stateful. This means it maintains a connection state between the communicating parties throughout the communication session. Stateful Nature of TCP Connection Establishment : TCP requires a connection to be established between the sender and receiver before data transmission can begin. This is done through a process called the three-way handshake. Three-Way Handshake : This process involves the exchange of three messages (SYN, SYN-ACK, and ACK) to establish a reliable connection. Maintaining State : During the connection, TCP keeps track of various parameters to ensure reliable and ordered data delivery. Sequence Numbers : TCP assigns sequence numbers to each byte of data to ensure it is received in the correct order. Acknowledgements (ACKs) : The receiver sends acknowledgements for the received data packets. If an ACK is not received, the sender retransmits the data. Flow Control : TCP uses a window mechanism to control the rate of data tran...

Get information about remote hosts using Ansible

Get information about remote hosts using Ansible setup command Below command gives all the information of client hosts which includes memory, server architecture, IP adresses etc. [root@ansible mywork]# ansible all -i hosts -m setup If you need just memory information of remote node then for the above command need to add filter as shown below [root@ansible mywork]# ansible all -i hosts -m setup -a "filter=ansible_*_mb" node01 | SUCCESS => {     "ansible_facts": {         "ansible_memfree_mb": 873,         "ansible_memory_mb": {             "nocache": {                 "free": 919,                 "used": 77             },             "real": {                 "free": 873,           ...
