Ansible

Network changes

Change general network stuff (VLANs, changing CIDRs) using the templates.

Change host_net, host_num and/or ansible_host in hosts.

When changes are made, generate_inventory.yml MUST be run. If both were changed, it must be run TWICE.

Wireguard

Generate keys on the command line with wg genkey | tee /dev/stderr | wg pubkey, private is the first string.

Store the private key with gopass, i.e.

gopass edit -c network/<inventory_hostname>_wg_pk

If using preshared keys, generate it with

wg genpsk
gopass edit -c network/<inventory_hostname>_wg_psk

Running

# If playbook needs vault, ask
ansible-playbook <playbook> --ask-vault-pass
# from file
ansible-playbook <playbook> --vault-password-file .vault_key
# Run only on server host (if hosts is all in playbook)
ansible-playbook -l server playbook.yml
# Run only one tag in playbook
ansible-playbook playbook.yml --tags grafana
# Run in vscode docker
ansible-playbook -i hosts_local server.yml --tags nginx
# Run with sudo remote user
ansible-playbook -i hosts -K -e 'ansible_user=andrei' playbooks/laptop.yml --diff --check --tags laptop

MikroTik

Dump firewall rules

- name: Get FW rules
  community.routeros.api_info:
    path: ip firewall filter
    handle_disabled: omit
  register: __fw

- name: Write to file
  delegate_to: localhost
  ansible.builtin.copy:
    content: "{{ __fw.result | to_nice_yaml(indent=2) }}"
    dest: "/tmp/{{ inventory_hostname }}.yml"

Cleanup

yq -iy 'map(del(.".id"))' /tmp/rb5009.yml
sed -i -E "/^  (log|disabled): false.*/d;/^  log-prefix: ''/d;/^-.*/i\\ " /tmp/rb5009.yml

Kubernetes

Remove Intel GPU stuff

https://kubernetes-sigs.github.io/node-feature-discovery/v0.15/deployment/uninstallation.html

kubectl delete ns inteldeviceplugins-system
kubectl delete ns node-feature-discovery

kubectl apply -k 'https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/node-feature-discovery/deployment/overlays/prune?ref=v0.15.4'
kubectl -n node-feature-discovery wait job.batch/nfd-master --for=condition=complete
kubectl delete -k 'https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/node-feature-discovery/deployment/overlays/prune?ref=v0.15.4'

kubectl delete nodefeaturerules.nfd.k8s-sigs.io intel-dp-devices
kubectl delete nodefeaturerules.nfd.k8s-sigs.io intel-gpu-platform-labeling
kubectl delete crd nodefeatures.nfd.k8s-sigs.io
kubectl delete crd nodefeaturerules.nfd.k8s-sigs.io

kubespray

Run kube playbook first

./playbooks/kube.yml -t system

If IPs were changed or hosts were added/removed, BGP peers must also be updated

./playbooks/mikrotik.yml -l rb5009 -t bgp

Run Ansible from the kubespray submodule

ansible-playbook -i ../inventory --vault-password-file ../gopass-vault.sh cluster.yml

Talos

Setup config

./playbooks/talos.yml -t config,host -e force=true
cd /tmp/talos-config
export TALOSCONFIG=$(realpath ./talosconfig)
