Ansible Run Updates
Here’s a simple adhoc to run updates on systems in Ansible.
ansible servers -m apt -a "upgrade=yes update_cache=yes" -b |
Results:
server | SUCCESS => { "changed": false, "msg": "Reading package lists... Building dependency tree... Reading state information... Calculating upgrade... 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.", "stderr": "", "stderr_lines": [], "stdout": "Reading package lists... Building dependency tree... Reading state information... Calculating upgrade... 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.", "stdout_lines": [ "Reading package lists...", "Building dependency tree...", "Reading state information...", "Calculating upgrade...", "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded." ] } |
If you want to reboot a remote server.
ansible servers -m "reboot" -b |
GCP UEFI Compatible
When trying to boot from a disk created from snapshot and you’re getting an “UEFI feature is not available for this project” error, you’ll need to create a boot image with the –guest-os-features option set to “UEFI_COMPATIBLE.”
gcloud compute disks create new-server-disk-2 \ --project=project-name \ --source-snapshot=server-disk-2 \ --zone=us-central1-b \ --guest-os-features="UEFI_COMPATIBLE" |
It’s about enabling guest operating system features on custom images. The guest operating system features let you configure networking, security, storage, and operating system options on custom images to be used on boot disks.
AWS Certificate List
Here’s how to get a list of certificates in AWS Certificate Manager.
aws acm list-certificates \ --profile default \ --region us-east-1 \ --output text \ --query 'CertificateSummaryList[*].{ARN:CertificateArn,Domain:DomainName}' |
GCP Display Forwarding Rules
Here’s how to display a list of Google Cloud forwarding rules.
gcloud compute forwarding-rules list |
If you want global only.
gcloud compute forwarding-rules --global |
Or just local regions only.
gcloud compute forwarding-rules --filter="region:( us-central us-west1 )" |
GCP Create Firewall with Tags
Here’s another way to create a firewall in GCP using network tag as targets.
gcloud compute firewall-rules create "firewall-name" \ --description="egress rule to allow port 8000 to destination" \ --priority "1000" \ --direction EGRESS \ --action allow \ --network "your-network" \ --target-tags="your-network-tag" \ --destination-ranges="10.0.0.1/32" \ --rules tcp:8000 |
