===Running ansible playbook===
To run an ansible playbook you can run the following command:
<sxh bash>
# ansible-playbook -s playbook.yml
</sxh>
^ Option ^ Description ^

=== Running script locally ===
By default ansible will run against the hosts in the following file: /etc/ansible/hosts
\\
\\
If you wish to install and then run ansible playbooks on your local machine/directly on the server-in-question, you can define the following at the top of your playbook:
<sxh bash>
---
- hosts: 127.0.0.1
connection: local
</sxh>
\\
You can also run ansible commands locally with the following command:
<sxh bash># ansible localhost -a "/bin/echo hello"
localhost | success | rc=0 >>
hello
</sxh>
