An Ansible role for installing and configuring the software watchdog daemon provided by the Linux kernel.
This role installs the watchdog apt package and configures
/etc/watchdog.conf according to values defined in
defaults/main.yml.
To install from Ansible Galaxy:
$ ansible-galaxy install whiskerlabs.watchdog
Or alternatively, add the path to a local copy of this repository to
roles_path within your project's ansible.cfg file:
roles_path = /path/to/role_dir
where /path/to/role_dir is a parent directory of
ansible-watchdog.
Consult
Ansible documentation
for more info on how to configure roles_path in an Ansible
configuration file.
Target hosts must be Linux machines running a Debian-based distro. The
only reason for this is because apt is currently used to install the
watchdog package.
ansible-watchdog has no role dependencies.
See documentation in defaults/main.yml.
