But before we start with the steps to install Ansible on RHEL8 or CentOS8, let us understand what is Ansible and how it works. ANSIBLE Ansible is the leading Open Source configuration management system. It makes it easy for administrators and operations teams to control thousands of servers from central machine without installing agents on them. Ansible is the simplest to use and manage when compared to other configuration management systems such as Puppet, Chef and Salt. It is easy to install, learn, and use. The only dependency required on the remote server is SSH service and Python.
Stratis is a local storage management solution for Linux Operating System and aims to ease the work of a system administrator by advanced storage options like snapshots, thin provisioning, pool-based management, monitoring, Tiering , etc. apart from being very simple to use. Stratis is a user-space daemon that configures and monitors existing components from Linux’s device-mapper subsystem, as well as the XFS filesystem. Stratis Pool which is the central attraction of the Stratis tool is a collection of one or more local disks or partitions. Once the pool is created, administrators can create volumes.
