00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:08,900
- Hi, welcome to lesson two.

2
00:00:08,900 --> 00:00:11,690
In this lesson, you'll
learn about ad hoc commands,

3
00:00:11,690 --> 00:00:14,100
an easy way to start using Ansible modules

4
00:00:14,100 --> 00:00:16,390
to configure the managed assets.

5
00:00:16,390 --> 00:00:19,670
I'll start by explaining why
ad hoc commands are useful

6
00:00:19,670 --> 00:00:21,590
and how they relate to playbooks.

7
00:00:21,590 --> 00:00:24,690
And next, we'll talk about
some essential Ansible modules

8
00:00:24,690 --> 00:00:28,850
as using ad hoc commands is all
about using Ansible modules.

9
00:00:28,850 --> 00:00:30,460
Once you know what the module is,

10
00:00:30,460 --> 00:00:32,980
I'll tell you how to use
the Ansible documentation

11
00:00:32,980 --> 00:00:35,840
to get more information about modules.

12
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,540
You'll also learn how modules
relate to Ansible collections.

13
00:00:39,540 --> 00:00:40,920
And the last topic to cover

14
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,810
before the end of lesson
lab is using Ansible

15
00:00:43,810 --> 00:00:47,670
in an idempotent way as
using idempotency determines

16
00:00:47,670 --> 00:00:50,320
your level of success
while working with Ansible.
