Copying the Ansible Environment Tarball

Lightbits Support provided you with an installation tarball - along with your Installation Addendum - that contains all of the configuration files that the Ansible playbook requires.

To download the tarball, run the following command on your installation workstation. Replace <YOUR_TOKEN> and <REPO_NAME> with the token and repository name from the Lightbits Installation Customer Addendum, and replace <Version> with the installation package version.

curl -1 'https://dl.lightbitslabs.com/<YOUR_TOKEN>/<REPO_NAME>/raw/files/light-app-install-environment-v<Version>.tgz?accept_eula=1' -o light-app-install-environment-v<Version>.tgz

Copy the tarball file to your installation workstation home directory and unpack the tar file using the instructions below.

Create a light-app directory and extract the contents into the new directory.

Note

The directory does not have to be called light-app and does not have to be in $HOME. We only suggest to do so, as the example going forward through the sections will assume that the installation package was extracted into $HOME/light-app/.

$ mkdir ~/light-app
$ tar -xvzf light-app-install-environment-v<Version>.tgz -C ~/light-app

Unpacking this tarball creates the following Ansible directory structure inside of the light-app directory, which contains the Ansible environment where the “ansible-playbook” command runs.
