-====== Step 1 - Connect to the Ansible control node ======
-From [[stack - nuc 1|NUC 1]], log in to the Ansible control node, [[stack -  nuc 2|NUC 2]].
-====== Step 2 - Set Up a Folder for Configuration and Playbooks ======
-  - Create folder ''/home/ansible/my-project/haproxy'' and change directory to it
-  - Copy the ''hosts'' file we created early in the lab
-    * ''cp /home/ansible/my-project/hosts /home/ansible/my-project/haproxy/''
-  - Create the file ''/home/ansible/my-project/haproxy/ansible.cfg''
-    * <file yaml ansible.cfg>
-[defaults]
-inventory         = hosts
-</file>
-  - Create the file ''/home/ansible/my-project/haproxy/haproxy.cfg.j2''
