Make system administration boring again
summary
Linux System Roles packages Ansible roles that present a stable configuration API for Fedora/RHEL/CentOS so playbooks survive major-version changes. Roles include network, time sync (supports ntpd and chrony providers), NFS, storage, logging and more; a live demo applies the roles successfully to three machines (CentOS/Fedora 6, 7 and 8). Roles choose the appropriate provider per OS, preserve or purge state as configured, and expose limitations (Postfix divergence, network-change granularity). Available on Ansible Galaxy and as RPMs.
