Managing Enterprise Automation with Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform

Automation controller integrates four primary network services as its components: Nginx as the web server for the application, PostgreSQL as its database, Supervisord as the process control system, and Receptor as an overlay network.

Use the automation-controller-service command to start, stop, or restart automation controller services, and systemctl to start, stop, or restart receptor services.

Automation controller stores log files in the /var/log/tower and /var/log/supervisor directories.

Automation controller can also send detailed logs to external log aggregation services.

The Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform installation script (setup.sh) provides the -b option to perform a backup and the -r option to perform a recovery.
