Deploy and configure XNAT in a Centos7 machine

This playbook has been tested with ansible 2.10.2

This repo provides a Vagrantfile to test and develop the playbook.

When using the Vagrant machine the ansible variables are defined in inventory/host_vars/default. You can edit this file in case you want to adjust any ansible var (defaults should work)

You can execute the playbook in a vagrant VM from the top folder of this repo:

$> ansible-galaxy role install -r requirements.yml -p ./roles
$> vagrant up

Once the playbook execution completes you can monitor how XNAT boots (xnat needs some minutes to boot)

$> vagrant ssh
$> sudo tail -f /opt/tomcat/logs/catalina.out

Once XNAT finished booting you can access it in http://192.168.111.222 and login as admin/admin

• copy file inventory/host_vars/default to inventory/host_vars/your_machine_hostname
• edit inventory/host_vars/your_machine_hostname and adjust it if needed (defaults should work)
• add your_machine_hostname to inventory/hosts
• download the dependency roles with ansible-galaxy role install -r requirements.yml -p ./roles
• execute the playbook with ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts ansible-playbook-xnat.yml
