The current initial state of discussion is (as of June 2024):

• John was able to get NFS up and running via Ansible, but it was a very simple use case (no id mapping).
• found a couple of typos in the current draft of documentation article and ran into some issues.
• We should discuss Ansible vs Cockpit. Both have their strengths, but writing common docs would be a PITA.
• Emmanuel has some Ansible scripting, too, based on Robert de Bock's work

Discussion so far:

• Meeting 2024-05-01 from 18:10 down
• Meeting 2024-06-05 from 17:25 down

Created directories to store project related data:
fedora-server/fedora-ansible
fedora-server/fedora-ansible/docs
fedora-server/fedora-ansible/roles
fedora-server/fedora-ansible/files

Meeting 2024-07-17

Our goal:

Create a playbook to install and configure a workable, default configuration,

• perform the installation step, ready to export
• either a series of existing directories elsewhere in the file tree (by mount bind) to specify in a configuration file
• or a series of dedicated sharable directories (on system level) stored in a special logical volume (or a series thereof), e.g. in /srv/nfsexport and specified in a configuration file
• A hook and example how to handle storage for podman containers and probably another common use case (e.g. backup)
