Oracle Automation-Creating Oracle 12c Database Using Ansible Tool

Description:-

In this article we are going to see Oracle Automation-Oracle Database Creation Using Ansible Tool

Let’s start the Demo:-

Steps to create Oracle database using Ansible :-

Step 1:- Download the ansible modules from  github site.Click Here

Step 2:-Move the ZIP file to ansible server.

[root@ansible SrikanthMac]# unzip ansible-oracle-master.zip
Archive: ansible-oracle-master.zip
1bbb35d690c102e23488537754ff8d1e0a99dc15
creating: ansible-oracle-master/
[root@ansible SrikanthMac]# ls -lrt
total 4272

-rwxrw-rw-. 1 ansible ansible 349507 Jul 30 22:33 ansible-oracle-master.zip

Step 3:- Create a single instance database on filesystem level

Sample file:- 

[root@ansible ]# cd ansible-oracle-master

[root@ansible ansible-oracle-master]# cat single-instance-db-on-fs.yml

[root@ansible ansible-oracle-master]#cat single-instance-db-on-fs.yml
- name: Host configuration
hosts: "{{ hostgroup }}"
become: yes
roles:
- common
- orahost
- cxoracle

- name: Database Server Installation & Database Creation
hosts: "{{ hostgroup }}"
become: yes
roles:
- oraswdb-install
- oradb-manage-db

- name: Database Server Installation & Database Creation
hosts: database-servers
user: oracle 
sudo: yes
roles:
- oraswdb-install
- oradb-create

Note :I have already installed all prerequisites and oracle binaries hence i am not using that role oraswdb-install

Step 4:- Go to  ansible-oracle-master/roles folder.Check oradb-create role is present for database creation.

Roles in ansible tool :-

Roles expect files to be in certain directory names. Roles must include at least one of these directories, however it is perfectly fine to exclude any which are not being used. When in use, each directory must contain a main.yml file, which contains the relevant content:

Role directory structure :-

roles/
   common/
     tasks/
     handlers/
     files/
     templates/
     vars/
     defaults/
     meta/
   webservers/
     tasks/
     defaults/
     meta/
  • tasks – contains the main list of tasks to be executed by the role.
  • defaults – default variables for the role 
  • templates- contains templates which can be deployed via this role.

Install tree rpm to see the execution of .yml file :-

[root@ansible roles]# yum install tree
Loaded plugins: langpacks, ulninfo

Downloading packages:

Step 5:- Run the tree command and see the execution of .yml files to create a database

[root@ansible roles]# tree oraswdb-install
oraswdb-install

├── meta

└── run-db-install.sh.j2

4 directories, 27 files

Step 6:- I have copied the single-instance-db-on-fs.yml file and named as dbcreation.yml as per the host entry and environment.

Change the main.yml entry present in defaults directory  as below:-

[root@ansible ~]# cd /home/ansible/Desktop/ansible-oracle-master/roles/oradb-create/defaults

The below data is used to create a new database using ansible tool.

[root@ansible ansible-oracle-master]# cat dbcreation.yml 

- name: Database Server Installation & Database Creation
hosts: db
user: oracle 
sudo: yes
roles:
- oradb-create

Step 7:- Run the playbook dbcreation.yml file to create a database.

[root@ansible ansible-oracle-master]# ansible-playbook dbcreation.yml
