   I should have used discipline and used Ansible to set up all my servers so they could be recreated from scratch.

     @vic I have a ton of experience with Ansible. It's got warts, yeah.

     @sun Ansible sucks, just use robust Bash scripts (use the Bash linter VS Cod(ium) plugin to avoid mistakes)

     @sun It has gotten far better in the past few years, though. Good if you're just using it to make sure certain things are installed and want to template configuration files on a per-server or per-group basis. Anything beyond that and it gets ugly fast.
