From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've recently been investigating doing some automated zero touch deployment stuff in my lab.

I have PXE boot in my lab but I feel like I'm under utilizing it. I was thinking about exploring using ansible with netbox as right now I only use netbox as a glorified wiki.

I'm just curious if anyone here has zero touch deployment and has any interesting takes on what it is good for and what it isn't good for (I would really like to hear about some edge cases).

Thanks!
