----------------------------------------------

--> Installs the php and mariadb packages on hosts in the dev, test, and prod host

groups.

--> Installs the Development Tools package group on hosts in the dev host group.

--> Updates all packages to the latest version on hosts in the dev host group.

Create a file in /home/sandy/ansible/ called report.yml. Using this playbook, get a file called report.txt (make it look exactly as below). Copy this file over to all remote hosts at /root/report.txt. Then edit the lines in the file to provide the real information of the hosts. If a disk does not exist then write NONE.

* The playbook contains a play that runs on hosts in balancers host group and uses

the balancer role.

--> This role configures a service to loadbalance webserver requests between hosts

in the webservers host group.curl

--> When implemented, browsing to hosts in the balancers host group (for example

http://node5.example.com) should produce the following output:

Welcome to node3.example.com on 192.168.10.z

--> Reloading the browser should return output from the alternate web server:

Welcome to node4.example.com on 192.168.10.a

following output:
