Deploy Files, Create Jinja2 Templates, and Manage Archives

Ansible's file management capabilities go far beyond simple file copying. In this lab, you will use Jinja2 templates to generate dynamic configuration files that adapt to each host.

You will:

• Deploy static files with the copy module
• Create Jinja2 templates that use facts and variables
• Edit specific lines in config files with lineinfile and blockinfile
• Create and extract archives with the archive and unarchive modules
