#Patch linux VM's

This playbook/role will first determind the OS of the VM (Distro), before it will start patching it.

This playbook works on:

• Debian
• Centos
• Ubuntu
• RHEL8
• Rocky Linux 8.5

on processor architecture:

• x64
• ARM

✅ Playbook requirements:

• Sudo access to the VM
• The target machine needs Internet access
• Ansible installed on the host running the playbook

Example playbook:

- hosts: ip-address
  gather_facts: true
  become: yes

  roles:
  - linux_os_patch

Example playbook run:

ansible-playbook setup.yml -i inventory --ask-become-pass

The playbook will then ask for the 'Sudo' password for the host target.
