text: **OpenShift-Ansible**
  Ansible is a simple IT automation engine that automates cloud provisioning, configuration 
  management, application deployment, intra-service orchestration, and many other IT needs. 
  
  Ansible uses no agents and no other custom security infrastructure, so it is easy to deploy 
  and most importantly, it uses a simple language (YAML, in the form of Ansible Playbooks) with 
  which you can describe your automation jobs in a way that approaches plain English. 
  
  Ansible works by connecting to your nodes and pushing out small programs, called*Ansible*
  *modules*to them. These programs are written to be resource models of the wanted state of 
  the system. Ansible then runs these modules (over SSH by default), and removes them when 
  finished. Passwords are supported, but SSH keys with ssh-agent are one of the best ways to 
  use Ansible. 
  
  **Note:**Ansible 2.6 is required for OpenShift 3.11. 
  
  OpenShift-Ansible is a set of Ansible playbooks that orchestrate complex deployment tasks, 
  including the following examples: 
  
  (cid:2) Configuring the container runtime environment on virtual machines 
  (cid:2) Provisioning storage for an internal registry 
  (cid:2) Configuring the OpenShift SDN 
  (cid:2) Connecting to authentication systems
