# Description
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The files here are Ansible inventory files generated by [`ansible/terraform.py`](/ansible/terraform.py).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Their purpose is an emergency inventory backup in case of failure or unavailability of Consul.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To use simply provide the file for the given stage using the `-i` argument.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example, if you want to run Ansible on mailservers of `eth.test` fleet while Consul is unavailable do:
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
ansible-playbook ansible/main.yml -i ansible/inventory/beta -l mail
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Terraform Backup
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition to the Ansible inventory files the [`ansible/terraform.py`](/ansible/terraform.py) script also stores the last seen Terraform inventory under `.terraform/terraform.tfstate.backup'.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
So if ever Consul KV store is lost, it can be recovered from this copy.
