Install and configure ansible


User bob has been created on your control node. Give him the appropriate permissions on the control
node. Install the necessary packages to run ansible on the control node.
Create a configuration file /home/bob/ansible/ansible.cfg to meet the following requirements:
• The roles path should include /home/bob/ansible/roles, as well as any other path that may be
required for the course of the sample exam.
• The inventory file path is /home/bob/ansible/inventory.
• Ansible should be able to manage 10 hosts at a single time.
