-====== NUC 2 ======
-This is the second NUC in the [[Stack of NUCs]]. This will be the Ansible controller, the Control Node. We will build it using the USB install and autoconfiguration method we tested with [[NUC 1]].
-Ansible terms:
-  * Control node - A system on which Ansible is installed. You run Ansible commands such as ansible or ansible-inventory on a control node.
-  * Managed node - A remote system, or host, that Ansible controls.
-  * Inventory - A list of managed nodes that are logically organized. You create an inventory on the control node to describe host deployments to Ansible.

-  - Boot with the custom Lab bootable USB and the customized CIDATA USB inserted
-    * with the NUC powered off, insert both USB sticks
-    * power on the NUC, and press F10 when prompted
-    * select the UEFI USB boot option
-    * after a while, the device will power down
-    * remove the USB sticks from the NUC and power it back on
-    * be patient it is completes configuration and powers down again
-    * you can disconnect the ethernet cable if you'd like, relocate it, etc., and then power it back on
-  - Not sure why it doesn't seem to have install ansible exactly as I wanted
-  -   - By default, Ansible default configuration file and inventory file is located at /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg and /etc/ansible/hosts respectively.
-  - Log in to NUC 2 from NUC 1:
-    * ''ssh ansible@[IP ADDRESS NUC2]''
-  - Generate keys
-    * ''ssh-keygen -o''
-    * press enter to accept defaults to all prompts
-  - View the key, which you will use for building the remaining NUCs
-    * ''cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub''
-  - Ansible is now installed, but with no inventory file(s) or configuration
-    * ''ansible --version''
-  - Set up some files for Ansible; we will be configuring/adding the new NUCs under [nodes] later
-    * <code bash>
-mkdir my-project
-cat <<'EOF' > my-project/hosts
-[nodes]
-[all:vars]
-ansible_python_interpreter=/usr/bin/python3
-ansible_user='ansible'
-ansible_become=yes
-ansible_become_method=sudo
-EOF
-</code>
-  - Exit back to your NUC 1 session
-  - Test running a remote command using SSH
-    * ''ssh ansible@[IP ADDRESS NUC2] "sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y"''
-  - You are now ready to build more more NUCs! Continue with [[NUC 3]]
