Exercise 1: An INI Inventory for cacheservers — Possible Solution ==================================================================== [cacheservers] cache1.example.com cache2.example.com [cacheservers:vars] redis_port=6379 Explanation: This follows the chapter's own webservers/dbservers example exactly: a bracketed group header ([cacheservers]) with the two hosts listed underneath it, one per line, and a separate [cacheservers:vars] section attaching redis_port=6379 to every host in that group at once, using the same :vars suffix pattern the chapter's own http_port=80 example demonstrated for the webservers group. Both cache1.example.com and cache2.example.com automatically receive redis_port=6379 without it needing to be repeated per host. WHY THIS WORKS AS AN ANSWER ------------------------------ This builds a correctly structured INI inventory using the exact group-header-plus-:vars-suffix pattern shown in the chapter, matching the exercise's own specific host names, group name, and variable requirement.
