Hey All,

Trying to understand how to setup Ansible in High Availability. I know AWX (Tower) can be setup and there’s plenty of docs out there but being a relative Novice to Ansible, I’m not able to find much on setting up **only** Ansible in HA.

Could anyone point me to some online material I could jump start off of?

Cheers,  
TK

There is nothing about pure ansible HA because ansible is effectively stateless. You can run the same playbooks on another machine (or multiple machines at once) with no problem as long as ansible is installed there. My only suggestion is to use some sort of version management (like git) to store the playbooks and the roles so it can be easily downloaded to another machine if needs be.

kind regards
