Ansible automation platform - 2.5 - Single node

hello
I’m tring to install AAP 2.5 on rhel 9 on single node.
I am being obliged to specify an automation gateway.
What should be the gateway if the VM IP where Im installing the AAP will be used to reach the AAP.

On another side, is it doable to install the 2.5 version on a single node?

You could do a single node deployment of 2.5 using the containerized installer with the growth topology. One thing that I’d suggest would be to use an FQDN versus IP address, though. You would just define the gateway’'s host the same as you would the others within the inventory.

Hi Denperr,

Thank you for replying.

The containerized deployment is mandatory for the single node installation to succeed? or is it just a recommendation.

I believe, to get AAP 2.5 to run on a single node, the containerized setup is required. On the plus side, the bundled installer for aap2.5 containerized install comes with an inventory file for what they call the growth model, which is a single node install, just modify inventory-growth with the install parameters, and let it run… It worked well, once I realized it needed at least 12gb of space in /var/tmp , for it to complete the installation of the containers (podman needed the space to expand the container images) … Good luck!
