Usage

In order to use this repository read the setup documentation first.

Data Persistence

The container will create the two following directories on the host to manage the persistent data.

• $HOME/.tpi
• $HOME/.ssh/tpi

If you are using a previous version of this repository, data should be automatically migrated to this new configuration. This is to ensure that we keep the user data, like inventory, group_vars, host_vars in the case the user resets the repository or removes the repository from the host all together.

Provision Nodes

Start provisiong node with the following documentation.
