Pre-Flight Check
- These instructions are intended specifically for installing Ansible, an automation tool, on Fedora 20.
- I’ll be working from a Liquid Web Self Managed Fedora 20 server, and I’ll be logged in as non-root user. If you need more information then visit our tutorial on How to Add a User and Grant Root Privileges on Fedora 20.
Step #1: The Installation
As a matter of best practice we’ll update our packages:
sudo yum -y update
Then let’s install Ansible and any required packages:
sudo yum -y install ansible
Step #2: Verify The Installation
Check the version of Ansible that is installed:
ansible --version
Which should yield something similar to:
ansible 1.3.4
