Ansible Health Checks: Designing the Daily Report

In this post I sketch a simple approach to a daily fleet health check using Ansible:

1. Inventory groups for Linux, Windows, VMware, and storage endpoints.
2. Reusable roles for checks (uptime, disk, CPU/mem, critical services, RAID, snapshots).
3. Jinja2 report → email or HTML artifact.

I’ll share a minimal role layout and example playbook in the next post.
