- prepare and install Tower (on a normal OS, or on OpenShift)
- configure the OS to support Kerberos (if you plan to manage Windows hosts using AD credentials)
- backup and restore Ansible Tower
- install a minimal Git repo over SSH, for demonstration and learning purposes

Many roles and variables have been renamed to reflect the product renaming from Tower to controller/AAP. Verify carefully your inventory variables and playbooks.
The OCP installation role has been suppressed due to the introduction of an operator. Further (community) automation for AAP on OCP is available from the https://github.com/redhat-cop/gitops-catalog/tree/main/ansible-automation-platform[GitOps catalogue].
