awx_pod

This Ansible role sets up Ansible AWX server using containers. It uses podman to do it.

See this blog how to use it: https://redhatnordicssa.github.io/ansible-podman-containers-2

Requirements

Role is tested on Fedora server.

Role Variables

Set AWX credentials and storage paths is defaults/main.yml file.

SECURITY NOTE: If you use AWX for anything else than personal development, do note that the admin credentials are readable in podman awx.yaml file. So after you change the admin password in AWX, remove the initial setup password immediately from the awx.yaml. Otherwise it will be readable by other host users, and will be re-applied at every restart of AWX.

Dependencies

Role depends on ikke_t.podman_container_systemd role.
