Excellent video. As you mentioned, it would be nice to have a video about GIT and the differences between github and gitlab, also selfhosted options like gitea. So far your content is rock solid and already a source of knowledge that i use for reference on my homelab adventures.
Great vid. Thank you. Exactly what I was searching for! A github tutorial vid would be very helpful for homelab networkers, engineers and hobby it-fans!
Wonderful, this video is just as I got into Ansible. I would really love a video on Git with specifics for the Ops guys, how does it improve the usual processes
Thanks for the demo/review of Semaphore. Have heard of it, but not used it. Will have to give it a look for home use. It does appear to be something of AWX-lite.
Thanks for this. I stumbled upon this the other week and was something I wanted to setup, and hoped would be easier to use ansible with. Also a big yes please to a nice git tutorial, that would be fantastic.
Hi, Christian Unfortunately, since Red Hat has been taken over by IBM, it is no longer possible to use Red Hat products. Especially Ansible Tower, but this semaphore looks very good and has good features You also showed this in the best possible way Thank you very much🙏👌🙏👌💪
Great video. I have used AWX (Ansible Tower open source) and also Rundeck as Ansible controllers before. All are great and have good features, but this looks very cool! Thanks for sharing Christian, I will try out for my home setup.
@@KristianKirilov Why do you need both? Because Rundeck is more than just a workflow tool, I use it to build AMI's, create infrastructure with Terraform, docker builds and anything that an admin can do I automate it, that's why.
Hi Christian, vielen Dank für diese geile Software. Meinen heutigen Arbeitstag habe ich damit verbracht, alle scripte umzubauen und Semaphore zu pflegen. Jetzt darf meine Endlosliste in RoyalTSX verschwinden
Very nice. This could be a great way to help a team of sysadmins not having to worry too much about routine tasks. And yes, I would like to see a video on git. 😅
Thank you for sharing this! For awhile, I was using AWX and then switched to Rundeck when AWX moved to requiring k8s. But while Rundeck is great and I love it, it's a little overkill. This fits the bill perfectly!
I have been running semaphore for over a year and it’s been rock solid in terms of executing scheduled tasks and it’s very light weight. However it has a few annoying bugs that haven’t been fixed that impact me so I’m actually evaluating rundeck. I also like that rundeck can do more than just ansible but hate that it uses Java and takes 2 GB of memory out of the box with no tasks running. That’s like 4x the memory of my next most memory hungry container. It feels bulky to run in docker which is a shame.
Hi Chris, great video. Would you be able to cover Ansible AWX? I think it would be beneficial for the community since that project is used more in enterprise setups than this. Anything else keep up the great work love the vids.
Not sure whether AWX/Tower is worth the trouble in a homelab. It's intended for environments where auditing, enforcement, privilege seperation etc. are a concern. In a homelab you are usually the only one making changes, you know who screwed up, if something is wrong. You are provisioning the hardware, the VMs and containers, you write the configs etc. Although I sometimes whish for it, but no tool can protect me from my own stupidity. There's no one arround who knows better and AWX doesn't change that. It does solve one problem though: in a sufficiently hardned environment you don't want to do all the admin work from your workstation. You'll want to do that from a jump host. AWX/Tower can be that jump host, but just SSHing into a small VM, pulling the latest versions of your playbooks and running them by hand is way simpler.
Thank you for this video. I am currently running ubuntu on my servers and managing updates with canonical landscape. This is exactly what i searched for because i am moving my servers from ubuntu to debian and needed an easy tool to automate my updates and some other tasks. As always a verry good and informative video. Vielen Dank
Thanks for sharing, great stuff 👍👍. A github vid would be highly appreciated. As you mentioned it's not very intuitive learning all the different tasks and steps, at least for me.
Great video, Christian! I have already automated most of my machines in my homelab with ansible. Mostly using ansible-pull in order to avoid the need of a central server that controls all the ansible playbooks. Because that's what puzzles me the most when thinking of tools like Semaphore: you need a machine to install it on, preferably using Docker, and you also mentioned that it is recommended to have it behind Traefik or Nginx. I fully agree. But that raises the chicken and egg question. I want every machine in my network to be controlled and configured by Ansible playbooks, including my reverse proxy, and even the Semaphore server itself 🤪
Well, you put the files on your laptop and deploy the server ones to install some git server, webserver, docker, ansible, etc. After that log into this and connect it to the same server and put the files in a repo and delete the old files from laptop.
Excellent point. Another thought occurred to me as well though. We have all the benefits of version control for the playbooks, but we're back to untracked ClickOps for all the stuff that is setup in Semaphore.
Рік тому+2
Protip: make ansible-lint a habit. It will improve your playbooks and catch bugs early
I've used Semaphore for almost a year now, it lack some docs and some functions but other than that it is a nice GUI for Ansible playbooks. Note that i use it at work in small scale (for now). The server is easy to install and maintain, friendly GUI, nice to have the Ansible code in a repository (otherwise people just hack in the terminal/manual work).
Great video as always ! In a homelab setup, this is really great but in a professional context, the constraint of having the ansible binary on the semaphone server is so unfortunate. The flexibility to have a remote ansible runner is so much more powerfull and unlocks the ability to use different ansible versions. This is particularly useful when u have large teams that each maintain a bunch of playbooks and don't have the time or resources to all conform to a specific ansible version. Remote ansible runners also allows u to manage client infrastructure so much more easily.
Thank you! I think the target group for Ansible Semaphore is really the small lightweight environment, where this might not be a big deal. But sure, that type of feature would be awesome.
Finally, I got everything up and running. However, it was not an easy task. Like others who experienced problems, i spend many hours to figure things out. The first problem was with the docker-compose file. I experienced a problem using the database that was installed with the docker-compose files. i already explained how i solved it. The second problem was the SSH connections with Github. First, i make my repository public so that i didn't need to use SSH. That seems to work. Second was the SSH connection to the target server. After hours i finally found out that you have to use the private and public generated keys of the container where you installed Semaphore and not of your Windows, MAC, or whatever machine where your browser is installed, because you are running Semaphore in a container. Once i figure that i was able to connect through SSH to Github and also to the target machine. You can copy the public key to the target machine with the SSH-copy command from the command line of your container after you generate a key. Last but not least, in the video Christian use VS code to move his playbooks to Github. He didn't mention that if you don't use VS-code or you don't know how to do it with VScode you can also do it in GitHub self by uploading it. I hope this helps.
This is where I’m having trouble too. I suspected it has to be the keys generated from inside the container it’s running on not the host key. Are you able to explain this further? Need help understanding it more
I've been looking to Semaphore and Rundeck for some time. I'm considering using one of the two for work. It seems like Rundeck is pretty heavy and not so intuitive, and sempahore UI/UX design is very pleasant. But if i understand correctly, there is no API versionning in Semaphore, and that is too scary. I'll keep it for my home lab as well. Thank you for the video (yes i'm late)
If you have a Kubernetes cluster, AWX installation is super easy, barely an inconvenience! ;) Its featureset is also better and it's also more widely used.
yes, I agree with some of the comments. AWX is so far, way more robust. Maybe this is better for people that don't need all the stuff that comes with AWX. Like a lightweight alternative.
While I like Semaphore I'm much more into AWX, I like it's Operator and its Kubernetes integration. It will spin up a new container for any playbook run. You can create custom runners with custom ansible galaxy roles and stuff, too. It's pretty slick.
Hi Christian, I'm not sure if you did this on purpose, but the playbooks you mentioned are only in the ansiblesemaphore branch, not the main(default) one. Looks like some folks are looking for them, based on the comments below.
I worked out "git for sysadmins" the hard way by trial and error and pestering some of our developers when I got stuck but video resource to point new team members to would be amazing. You should do it :)
Haha.... Real IT Guys used to work in dark mode all the time as there was no other choice on those old IBM, Honeywell, and NCR mainframes and UNIX terminals. Cheers!
Great vid as always and informative. I have dabbled with ansible a few times and keep navigating back to command line. This is enough to roll one out again and see. Question - are your playbooks available on your GitHub anywhere? I love a good set of playbooks to beg, steal, borrow :)
I ditched dark mode after years of eye strain that I just couldn't beat. Haven't looked back since. I still don't know if this is because it's easier on the eyes to see fine details in light mode, or if it's just the fact that so many websites use light mode, that switching back and forth between them hundreds of times a day going from my terminal or IDE to light webpages is strenuous. I so miss the sleek themes of dark mode though. There is this one called doom-laserwave on Emacs that is just chef's kiss.
Your tutorial is great, thank you for your effort. Just a quick question, I also automate the apt-update but within Ubuntu 22.04 server update process, you must click OK to proceed at the prompt screen for some questions about restarting a certain services. How do you preset those option to automatically "OK"? Again, thank you!
Yeah, sometimes, it depends on the machine. On important ones, I just do the updates, but reboot them at maintenance timeframes. On demo servers, I just update and reboot automatically.
What a great video, I love it. Not sure if someone covered it already, but the demo at the end referred to UPDATING the apt packages, but it actually UPGRADED them. Big difference in the apt world. One is checking for available updates while the other is applying them. I was surprised when you checked on one of the servers and found that no upgrades were pending.
Very neat! I'm just starting to learn more about Ansible as I don't really deploy new containers/VMs all that often, but it would be nice to be able to automate and synchronise my user accounts, post install, to SSSD. Thank you.
Hi, Thank you for such an informative video. i notice that at the beginning you are using a web UI that by clicking on any ICON you can connect to a web console, cli, or any interface that your homeland has. so is the teleport UI?
Hi Chris, I would find it very useful to have a github tutorial, especially I noticed during this video how you created your apt update script in your git video's repository from your vscode, the linking here would be really helpful to me. Thx Andrew
You could share your take on ... running Ansible play from the Terraform, or running Terraform from the Ansible. IMHO... booth solutions feels more like an "hacks". Idea is to have self-contained project, which you can spin up or tear down with a single command. I mean, all the pieces for that specific project... LVMs, S3 buckets, DNS, Containers, Network, etc.
Great video. I have been slowly moving stuff into Semaphore, and the more I use it I like it. There is only one thing that annoys me a bit. If you are trying to watch the run, using the output console, it is not a "live" console. So if you want to see updated output, you need to hit refresh on your browser. A bit annoying, but I've built it into my workflow, so it's no big deal. Honestly, that is really being nit-picky.
I like your contents. Also, bought your udemy courses. Now, please have a complete Full Stack Ansible management project from you. Thank you very much.
Have just installed Semaphore and tested a couple of playbooks, it's awesome! It's really friendly and quickly understandable, and convenient for running scheduled playbooks. I first watched about it on your channel, thank you! :))) p.s. you're cute :)))
Have you had any success connecting an OIDC provider? I know they have it in their docs, but when following it the Github setup has never worked for me. If you have an idea let me know! Great video!
I know developers who not uses dark mode. They are not really IT guys 😅. I use AWX on production environments. I like cos I can do some API calls to extract data or update some configuration. Have Ansible Semaphore this feature too? I will study more about it.
