Now that #Lúthien is asleep, I went upstairs to work a bit on my #Ansible playbook. Upstairs, on my PC, instead of the lowly laptop in the living room.

And look who claimed my lap? One of Lúthien's brothers, #Tux. This is the bouncy cat, very playful, very active and completely bonkers at times. But he's been sleeping here for a while now. Tux was the second one born, the others were -for what I could see in the dusk- all black.

Anyway, time for him to move, I'm going to hit the sack...

Wait, neither #pyinfra nor #BundleWrap run actual Python code on the remote hosts, right? They're apparently both basically just fancy wrappers for running shell commands, mainly via SSH.

In contrast, #Ansible _does_ run Python on the remote side. Which means that Python is required to be installed, but also means that you can do more sophisticated stuff than parsing CLI tool output. 🤔

Ich suche nach einer Person, die uns als #SysAdmin unterstützen will.

Wir bauen #CubeSat hardware selber und wollen Waldbrände auf der ganzen Welt aus dem Weltall finden. Weil wir inzwischen über 120 ppl (+9 🌍 🛰️ !) sind brauchen wir Support bei unserer internen IT 🔥 🚒

Ganz viel Linux (#Debian), #Ansible, aber auch SaaS Services und Office-Infra (#Ubiquity) brauchen eine feste Anlaufstelle.

hmu!

Hello, hachyderm! we've been working hard on building up our ansible runbooks and improving hachyderm's overall resilience. Recently, we've been focusing on is database resilience.

We're getting close to retiring our original database server (finally!) and preparing to move to a fully ansible-managed set of databases servers, primary and replica on new hardware. We'll send another announcement when we do the cut over. The team has done excellent work to make this highly automated, quick, and painless! :blobfoxscience:

Done:

✅ author ansible roles for managing postgresql, pgbackrest (backups), pgbouncer, and primary/replica failover
✅ decide to continue with pgbouncer and *not* use pgcat
✅ rotate database passwords
✅ order new replica database hardware
✅ order new future primary database hardware

To do soon:

🟨 rebuild replica database with ansible scripts
🟨 prepare primary database with ansible scripts
🟨 start replicating to new database replica
🟨 cut over to new database server 🎉

We're also planning on open-sourcing our ansible roles in the coming weeks - just a little housekeeping & tidying up before we do!

#Ansible's decision to use Jinja in values only, and not render the YAML itself through Jinja (like Salt does) might make some things a bit more clean, but it also makes a _lot_ of things significantly more difficult. 😩

Fun question for the #NixOS #Ansible bubble:

I noticed that Ansible on NixOS does not find python modules that have been installed from NixPkgs. This means, modules like the kubernetes module are not found and Ansible cannot do its work, when a task is executed on localhost (e.g. via delegate_to)

Is there a way to install those additional modules together with the Ansible package?

Or is this just some messup with autodetecting the python interpreter on localhost?
