-# Deploy Netdata with Ansible
-
-Netdata's [one-line kickstart](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/get-started.mdx) is zero-configuration, highly adaptable, and compatible with tons
-of different operating systems and Linux distributions. You can use it on bare metal, VMs, containers, and everything
-in-between.
-
-But what if you're trying to bootstrap an infrastructure monitoring solution as quickly as possible? What if you need to
-deploy Netdata across an entire infrastructure with many nodes? What if you want to make this deployment reliable,
-repeatable, and idempotent? What if you want to write and deploy your infrastructure or cloud monitoring system like
-code?
-
-Enter [Ansible](https://ansible.com), a popular system provisioning, configuration management, and infrastructure as
-code (IaC) tool. Ansible uses **playbooks** to glue many standardized operations together with a simple syntax, then run
-those operations over standard and secure SSH connections. There's no agent to install on the remote system, so all you
-have to worry about is your application and your monitoring software. 
-
-Ansible has some competition from the likes of [Puppet](https://puppet.com/) or [Chef](https://www.chef.io/), but the
-most valuable feature about Ansible is **idempotent**. From the [Ansible
-glossary](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/glossary.html)
-
-> An operation is idempotent if the result of performing it once is exactly the same as the result of performing it
-> repeatedly without any intervening actions.
-
-Idempotency means you can run an Ansible playbook against your nodes any number of times without affecting how they
-operate. When you deploy Netdata with Ansible, you're also deploying _monitoring as code_.
-
-In this guide, we'll walk through the process of using an [Ansible
-playbook](https://github.com/netdata/community/tree/main/netdata-agent-deployment/ansible-quickstart) to automatically
-deploy the Netdata Agent to any number of distributed nodes, manage the configuration of each node, and connect them to
-your Netdata Cloud account. You'll go from some unmonitored nodes to a infrastructure monitoring solution in a matter of
-minutes.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
--   A Netdata Cloud account. [Sign in and create one](https://app.netdata.cloud) if you don't have one already.
--   An administration system with [Ansible](https://www.ansible.com/) installed.
--   One or more nodes that your administration system can access via [SSH public
-    keys](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-Generating-Your-SSH-Public-Key) (preferably password-less).
-
-## Download and configure the playbook
-
-First, download the
-[playbook](https://github.com/netdata/community/tree/main/netdata-agent-deployment/ansible-quickstart), move it to the
-current directory, and remove the rest of the cloned repository, as it's not required for using the Ansible playbook.
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/netdata/community.git
-mv community/netdata-agent-deployment/ansible-quickstart .
-rm -rf community
-```
-
-Or if you don't want to clone the entire repository, use the [gitzip browser extension](https://gitzip.org/) to get the netdata-agent-deployment directory as a zip file.
-
-Next, `cd` into the Ansible directory.
-
-```bash
-cd ansible-quickstart
-```
-
-### Edit the `hosts` file
-
-The `hosts` file contains a list of IP addresses or hostnames that Ansible will try to run the playbook against. The
-`hosts` file that comes with the repository contains two example IP addresses, which you should replace according to the
-IP address/hostname of your nodes. 
-
-```conf
-203.0.113.0  hostname=node-01
-203.0.113.1  hostname=node-02 
-```
-
-You can also set the `hostname` variable, which appears both on the local Agent dashboard and Netdata Cloud, or you can
-omit the `hostname=` string entirely to use the system's default hostname.
-
-#### Set the login user (optional)
-
-If you SSH into your nodes as a user other than `root`, you need to configure `hosts` according to those user names. Use
-the `ansible_user` variable to set the login user. For example:
-
-```conf
-203.0.113.0  hostname=ansible-01  ansible_user=example
-```
-
-#### Set your SSH key (optional)
-
-If you use an SSH key other than `~/.ssh/id_rsa` for logging into your nodes, you can set that on a per-node basis in
-the `hosts` file with the `ansible_ssh_private_key_file` variable. For example, to log into a Lightsail instance using
-two different SSH keys supplied by AWS.
-
-```conf
-203.0.113.0  hostname=ansible-01  ansible_ssh_private_key_file=~/.ssh/LightsailDefaultKey-us-west-2.pem
-203.0.113.1  hostname=ansible-02  ansible_ssh_private_key_file=~/.ssh/LightsailDefaultKey-us-east-1.pem
-```
-
-### Edit the `vars/main.yml` file
-
-In order to connect your node(s) to your Space in Netdata Cloud, and see all their metrics in real-time in [composite
-charts](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/visualize/overview-infrastructure.md) or perform [Metric
-Correlations](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/cloud/insights/metric-correlations.md), you need to set the `claim_token`
-and `claim_room` variables.
-
-To find your `claim_token` and `claim_room`, go to Netdata Cloud, then click on your Space's name in the top navigation,
-then click on **Manage your Space**. Click on the **Nodes** tab in the panel that appears, which displays a script with
-`token` and `room` strings. 
-
-![Animated GIF of finding the claiming script and the token and room
-strings](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1153921/98740235-f4c3ac00-2367-11eb-8ffd-e9ab0f04c463.gif)
-
-Copy those strings into the `claim_token` and `claim_rooms` variables.
-
-```yml
-claim_token: XXXXX
-claim_rooms: XXXXX
-```
-
-Change the `dbengine_multihost_disk_space` if you want to change the metrics retention policy by allocating more or less
-disk space for storing metrics. The default is 2048 Mib, or 2 GiB. 
-
-Because we're connecting this node to Netdata Cloud, and will view its dashboards there instead of via the IP address or
-hostname of the node, the playbook disables that local dashboard by setting `web_mode` to `none`. This gives a small
-security boost by not allowing any unwanted access to the local dashboard.
-
-You can read more about this decision, or other ways you might lock down the local dashboard, in our [node security
-doc](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/secure-nodes.md).
-
-> Curious about why Netdata's dashboard is open by default? Read our [blog
-> post](https://www.netdata.cloud/blog/netdata-agent-dashboard/) on that zero-configuration design decision.
-
-## Run the playbook
-
-Time to run the playbook from your administration system:
-
-```bash
-ansible-playbook -i hosts tasks/main.yml
-```
-
-Ansible first connects to your node(s) via SSH, then [collects
-facts](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/playbooks_vars_facts.html#ansible-facts) about the system.
-This playbook doesn't use these facts, but you could expand it to provision specific types of systems based on the
-makeup of your infrastructure.
-
-Next, Ansible makes changes to each node according to the `tasks` defined in the playbook, and
-[returns](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/common_return_values.html#changed) whether each
-task results in a changed, failure, or was skipped entirely.
-
-The task to install Netdata will take a few minutes per node, so be patient! Once the playbook reaches the connect to Cloud
-task, your nodes start populating your Space in Netdata Cloud.
-
-## What's next?
-
-Go use Netdata!
-
-If you need a bit more guidance for how you can use Netdata for health monitoring and performance troubleshooting, see
-our [documentation](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs). It's designed like a comprehensive guide, based on what you might
-want to do with Netdata, so use those categories to dive in.
-
-Some of the best places to start:
-
--   [Enable or configure a collector](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/collect/enable-configure.md)
--   [Supported collectors list](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/collectors/COLLECTORS.md)
--   [See an overview of your infrastructure](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/visualize/overview-infrastructure.md)
--   [Interact with dashboards and charts](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/visualize/interact-dashboards-charts.md)
--   [Change how long Netdata stores metrics](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/store/change-metrics-storage.md)
-
-We're looking for more deployment and configuration management strategies, whether via Ansible or other
-provisioning/infrastructure as code software, such as Chef or Puppet, in our [community
-repo](https://github.com/netdata/community). Anyone is able to fork the repo and submit a PR, either to improve this
-playbook, extend it, or create an entirely new experience for deploying Netdata across entire infrastructure.
