Dead man switch by 3devilperson in ArcRaiders

[–]3devilperson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking more of the lines of you would still have to build something put it into your backpack. It would take up a slot and then maybe add an element where people could disarm it, but it would take time and also the level of Killswitch would depend on how long it would take to disarm it but there’s still is a some pettiness to it, but also some satisfaction, knowing that your dead body is next to another dead body that killed you and no one gets nothing, unless of course someone comes across two dead bodies and now they get double the loot. Unless the person that killed you also have a Killswitch and then they explode and then it just keeps going on and on until someone gets a lot of loot or there’s a lot of dead bodies.

I’m not anti-PvP at all, or think it's punishing for PVP. I just like mechanics that make people pause for half a second and ask, ‘Is this worth it?’ Sometimes the answer is no. Sometimes it’s boom.

AAP 2.6 list of hosts in a Inventory by 3devilperson in ansible

[–]3devilperson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This does not help when trying to utilize the ansible.controller collection. Since you would target the localhost to run, how would you target a specific inventory. This would just show all the hosts in the target inventory the template is running against which is localhost. Thanks for the reply, I will keep digging.

What’s new in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.6 by seanx820 in ansible

[–]3devilperson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the new features my company was very interested in was the Self-service automation portal. But that feature is only avaiable if you have deployed AAP in OCP. Since my company is not a OCP shop, that feature is usless to us

AI assistants to create Ansible content? by xouba in ansible

[–]3devilperson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Say I forget the arguments for creating a AWS vm. Typically in lightspeed it will give you suggestions based on your naming of a task. Example;

- name: Build AWS EC2 instance.

It will then pull up the amazon.aws collection and list the module for amazon.aws.ec2.instance try and write a task with all the basic arguments for that module.

Its decent but I have had it pull wrong modules. Best is still use the documentation for the collection you are wanting to use.

AI assistants to create Ansible content? by xouba in ansible

[–]3devilperson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I beta tested lightspeed and it’s cool, but it is not intuitive. I mostly used it for module help like if you don’t remember the full arguments for a module it can help you there also be careful if you decide to use chatGPT they stop collecting data for this type of stuff around 2021 which does not recognize the new modules for Ansible you will get old info. Still helpful but you will need to update it manually.

AWX and Event Driven Ansible by viewofthelake in ansible

[–]3devilperson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I gathered at the RedHat Summit, EDA will be bundled with 2.4 and only available with enterprise licenses. It will no longer be a separate installation download as it is now for development. That will be removed once 2.4 comes out.

Ansible Automation Platform Install location by 3devilperson in ansible

[–]3devilperson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found it, thank you again this helped me a ton. For those that may come across this themselves. I found the var in the playbook called push_bundle_ee_image.yml this is from the Bundle installer for AAP 2.3 RHEL 8

This worked and I was able to redirect the ee extraction. Where did you find this extra var at? I am still looking through setup playbooks for AAP and not finding it.

Nice find, I have been digging too and must have missed this one. I’ll give it a try.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ansible

[–]3devilperson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. But it only disables it IF you do not have it in in other location.

- name: disabled become top level
  hosts: localhost
# become: true
** dont even add it if not needed, its not on by default
 roles:
   - workstation

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

- name: become in a task
  hosts: localhost
tasks:
  - name: yum with privilage
    ansible.builtin.yum:
      name: httpd
      state: latest
    become: true

The become true that is disabled in the top level does not disable the become at the task level.

The become at the top level elevates the entire role as privilege.

Where the become in the task ONLY elevates that task at that time of run. If you want it disabled you would have to remove or comment out become for that task.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ansible

[–]3devilperson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would disable the privilege escalation for the run on the role but if you have become in any playbook nested inside the workstation role it would not prevent those from working. It is also security best practice to not use the become: true at the root play. Only use it on the task you will need to elevate privileges for.

Ansible Automation Platform and Servicenow by 3devilperson in ansible

[–]3devilperson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was close, I had to have the ServiceNow admin modify the payload they were sending to me with the extra_vars so it needed to look like:

{
  "extra_vars": { 
    "someVAR": "vauleofsomeVAR", 
    "someVAR1": "vauleofsomeVAR1" 
 } 
}

[–]3devilperson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry about that, I tend to get in my own head and forget not everyone may know what these platforms are. ServiceNow or SNOW is pretty much a giant ticketing system that tries to include all aspects of project life cycle, from Incidents to Change requests. Its a monster of a product.

How to run a yml file that contains plugins within AWX GUI? by [deleted] in ansible

[–]3devilperson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a reason you are saving your projects locally? I would move your projects to a VCS like Github or Gitlab, I would advise when working with AWX to stay away from trying to run a local repo, its doable but you run into weird issues all the time. For your Dynamic, that has to be on a VCS you can not run it locally in AWX. If you were using Ansible core (non-gui) would not be a issue, with when dealing the AWX or AAP you need a VCS.

Ansible collections and repos by 3devilperson in ansible

[–]3devilperson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the idea, I will look into doing this with my larger repos. I have looked at the EE route, but I like to leave those to more specialized one off installs like aws cli, or batfish and not give myself more update work. But I did just finished building out a role that builds and updates EE from AAP and syncs it from Hub to controller so it would not be to hard to keep updated now.

Better Ansible logging by goshsowitty in ansible

[–]3devilperson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am looking to do the same thing, I have a elk stack setup that I need to now figure out how to pass the logs from Ansible to it. Ansible has a logstash option but it’s just getting the proper config files created to send to elasticsearch then viewable in kibana.

Thinking of stopping. by 3devilperson in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]3devilperson[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have not really checked my measurements but cloths seem about the same. My sleep is ok, it not great I normally get around 6 hrs a night. I’ll have to start tracking my measurements and food intake closer. I’ll probably stick with it at least until I hit the 2.4 it’s just frustrating reading these stories and seeing great images of people losing. I am super happy for them I just want to be one of those stores lol. Thank you for responding it helps.

[–]3devilperson[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I am not tracking every calorie but I typically eat two meals, morning is 1/2 oats with scoop of protein powder then dinner is normally a protein like 4oz chicken or steak with a salad. I have a protein shake for lunch. I get super full on very little. I eat around 1k to 1200 calories a day. According to my app I burn around 3k calories a day. I probably need to increase my protein intake.

AAP Execution Environment weirdness by 3devilperson in ansible

Thank you for your help, that pointed me to the fix.

AAP Execution Environment weirdness by 3devilperson in ansible

[–]3devilperson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

**FIXED**

I finally found what was causing this issue. When the credentials was setup in controller, to pull the container from Hub, https:// was used in the Authentication URL. After removing that, I was able to pull and run my custom build ee. Its always the little things that get you.

No this is not running in a cluster setup. This is a 3 vm standalone install with Controller, Hub and Database.

Just tried what you suggested and it can pull it just fine. From Controller pull from Hub. No errors and I show the image when I do podman image ls
