Create a playbook called packages.yml that:
----------------------------------------------
--> Installs the php and mariadb packages on hosts in the dev, test, and prod host
groups.
--> Installs the Development Tools package group on hosts in the dev host group.
--> Updates all packages to the latest version on hosts in the dev host group.
Create a file in /home/sandy/ansible/ called report.yml. Using this playbook, get a file called report.txt (make it look exactly as below). Copy this file over to all remote hosts at /root/report.txt. Then edit the lines in the file to provide the real information of the hosts. If a disk does not exist then write NONE.

Modify file content.
------------------------
Create a playbook called /home/admin/ansible/modify.yml as follows:
* The playbook runs on all inventory hosts
* The playbook replaces the contents of /etc/issue with a single line of text as
follows:
--> On hosts in the dev host group, the line reads: “Development”
--> On hosts in the test host group, the line reads: “Test”
--> On hosts in the prod host group, the line reads: “Production”
Using the Simulation Program, perform the following tasks:
Ad-Hoc Ansible Commands (Number Two) Task:
1. Use the ad-hoc command to make sure php is installed.
2. Use the ad-hoc command to make sure that php is installed and is the latest version.
3. Use the ad-hoc command to make sure that httpd is installed.
4. Use the ad-hoc command to remove httpd from the servers.
In /home/sandy/ansible/ create a playbook called logvol.yml. In the play create a logical volume called Iv0 and make it of size 1500MiB on volume group vgO If there is not enough space in the volume group print a message "Not enough space for logical volume" and then make a 800MiB Iv0 instead. If the volume group still doesn't exist, create a message "Volume group doesn't exist" Create an xfs filesystem on all Iv0 logical volumes. Don't mount the logical volume.
