If one pins a package and does a 'apt-get dist-upgrade' then the
output looks like:
# apt-get dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following packages have been kept back:
cassandra
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
The check for any changes made should only be on the 'upgraded' and
'newly installed' values and not include the 'to remove' and 'not
upgraded' values.
Ansible
Ansible is a radically simple configuration-management, deployment, task-execution, and multinode orchestration framework.
Read the documentation and more at http://ansibleworks.com/
Many users run straight from the development branch (it's generally fine to do so), but you might also wish to consume a release. You can find instructions on http://ansibleworks.com/docs/gettingstarted.html for a variety of platforms. If you want a tarball of the last release, go to http://ansibleworks.com/releases/ and you can also install with pip (though that will bring in some optional binary dependencies you normally do not need).
Design Principles
- Dead simple setup
- Super fast & parallel by default
- No server or client daemons; use existing SSHd
- No additional software required on client boxes
- Modules can be written in ANY language
- Awesome API for creating very powerful distributed scripts
- Be usable as non-root
- The easiest config management system to use, ever.
Get Involved
- Read Contributing.md for all kinds of ways to contribute to and interact with the project, including mailing list information and how to submit bug reports and code to Ansible.
- irc.freenode.net: #ansible
Branch Info
- Releases are named after Van Halen songs.
- The devel branch corresponds to the release actively under development.
- Various release-X.Y branches exist for previous releases
- We'd love to have your contributions, read "CONTRIBUTING.md" for process notes.
