In this chapter, you learned:
Ansible provides built-in logging. This feature is not enabled by default.
The log_path parameter in the default section of the ansible.cfg configuration file specifies the location of the log file to which all Ansible output is redirected.
The debug module provides additional debugging information while running a playbook (for example, current value for a variable).
The -v option of the ansible-playbook command provides several levels of output verbosity. This is useful for debugging Ansible tasks when running a playbook.
The --check option enables Ansible modules with check mode support to display the changes to be performed, instead of applying those changes to the managed hosts.
Additional checks can be executed on the managed hosts using ad hoc commands.
Click CREATE to build all of the virtual machines needed for the classroom lab environment. This may take several minutes to complete. Once created the environment can then be stopped and restarted to pause your experience.
If you DELETE your lab, you will remove all of the virtual machines in your classroom and lose all of your progress.
