You're the Ansible now. [I'm the captain now.jpg]

This is all automatable of course. I'm using SaltStack but the storage setup is no longer part of it. It used to be but then I migrated from LVMRAID mirrors to RAIDZ and I didn't update the code to fix it. ZFS setup is just too easy. It's one command more or less. I just have the exact command for each machine with the exact drives in them on file.
