《Ansible自动化运维：技术与最佳实践》第二章读书笔记

Ansible 安装与配置

本章主要讲的是 Ansible 安装与基本配置，主要包含以下内容：

1. Ansible 环境准备
2. 安装 Ansible
3. 配置运行环境
4. Ansible实践

Ansible 环境准备

从 GitHub 获取 Ansible，准备控制主机，查看被管节点。

使用的操作系统为 Centos 7.0，自带 Python 2.7.5。

角色	主机名	IP 地址	组名	CPU	Web 根目录
被管节点	web1	192.168.46.128	webservers	2	/website
被管节点	web2	192.168.46.129	webservers	2	/website
控制节点	ansiblecontrol	192.168.46.130	---	---	---

永久性的修改主机名称hostnamectl set-hostname web1

安装 Ansible

Ansible 的安装方式分为直接用源码安装以及用包管理工具安装。

直接用源码安装

从 GitHub 源码库安装方式

提取 Ansible 源代码

git clone https://github.com/ansible/ansible.git -- recursive
cd ./ansible
# 减少告警/错误信息输出，可在安装时加上 -q 参数
source ./hacking/env-setup -q

若没有安装 pip，安装对应 Python 版本的 pip

sudo easy_install pip

安装 Ansible 控制主机需要的 Python 模块

sudo pip install paramiko PyYAML Jinja2 httplib2 six

当更新 Ansible 版本时，要更新 git 源码树以及 git 中指向 Ansible 自身的模块（称为 submodules）

git pull --rebase
git submodule update --init --recursive

运行 env-setup 脚本（默认资源清单 inventory 文件是 /etc/ansible/hosts）

.. code-block:: bash
echo "127.0.0.1" > ~/ansible_hosts
export ANSIBLE_HOSTS=~/ansible_hosts

通过 GitHub 仓库安装的，需要把仓库中 examples 目录下的 ansible.cfg 复制到 /etc/ansible 目录下

用包管理工具安装

pip安装方式

#安装 pip
sudo easy_install pip
#通过 pip 命令安装 Ansible
sudo pip install ansible

通过 pip 安装的，没有自动生成的配置文件，需要自己新建 /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg

配置运行环境

配置文件优先级：

1. ANSIBLE_CONFIG：首先，Ansible 命令会检查环境变量，以及环境变量指向的配置文件。
2. ./ansible.cfg：其次，会检查当前目录下的 ansible.cfg 配置文件。
3. ~/ansible.cfg：再次，会检查当前用户 home 目录下的 ansible.cfg 配置文件。
4. /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg：最后，会检查安装时自动生成的配置文件。

配置 Ansible 环境

1. 使用环境变量方式配置
2. 设置 ansible.cfg 配置参数

配置 Linux 主机 SSH 无密码访问

为避免 Ansible 下发指令时需要输入目标主机密码，通过证书签名达到 SSH 无密码访问。使用 ssh-keygen 和 ssh-copy-id 来实现快速证书的生成及公钥的下发。

在控制主机上创建密钥，执行ssh-keygen -t rsa，将在 /root/.ssh/ 下生成密钥，其中 id_rsa 为私钥， id_rsa.pub 为公钥。

#生成密钥
ssh-keygen  -t rsa

下发密钥就是控制主机将公钥 is_rsa.pub 下发到被管节点上用户下的 .ssh 目录，并重命名为 authorized_keys，且权限值为400。

#下发公钥到 web1（192.168.46.128）
ssh-copy-id -i id_rsa root@192.168.46.128
#ssh连接验证
ssh root@192.168.46.128
#退出
exit

Ansible 实践

主机连通性测试

修改主机与组配置 /etc/ansible/hosts ，添加两台主机的ip地址，同时定义一个 webservers 组包含这两个地址

192.168.46.128
192.168.46.129

[webservers]
192.168.46.128
192.168.46.129

用 ping 模块对单台主机进行 ping 操作
ansible 192.168.46.128 -m ping

结果如下

192.168.46.128 | SUCCESS => {
    "ansible_facts": {
        "discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python"
    }, 
    "changed": false, 
    "ping": "pong"
}

对 webservers 组进行 ping 操作
ansible webservers -m ping

在命令后加 -v 或 -vvv 可得到详细的输出结果

结果如下

192.168.46.128 | SUCCESS => {
    "ansible_facts": {
        "discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python"
    }, 
    "changed": false, 
    "ping": "pong"
}
192.168.46.129 | SUCCESS => {
    "ansible_facts": {
        "discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python"
    }, 
    "changed": false, 
    "ping": "pong"
}

在被管节点上批量执行命令

在 home 目录下创建资源清单文件 inventory.cfg

vim inventory.cfg

内容如下：

[webservers]
192.168.46.128
192.168.46.129

用 Ansible 的 shell 模块 在 webservers 组的服务器上显示 hello ansible（用 common 模块也可以实现）

ansible webservers -m shell -a '/bin/echo hello ansible' -i inventory.cfg

结果如下：

192.168.46.128 | CHANGED | rc=0 >>
hello ansible

192.168.46.129 | CHANGED | rc=0 >>
hello ansible

Ansible 获取帮助信息

ansible-doc -h 获得帮助

ansible-doc -l 获得工具下可使用的模块

ansible-doc -s 获得工具下模块支持的动作

总结

通过在 CentOS 上以不同的方式安装 Ansible 以及对 Ansible 进行参数配置，并通过 Ansible 在被管节点上执行命令。
