### Automated OS Installation for Dell iDRAC Systems

For completely automating the installation using an Ubuntu auto install ISO image see [here](auto_install_ubuntu_iso.md).

The Ansible playbook [install_os.yml](../ansible/install_os.yml) will automate the installation of Ubuntu Jammy 22.04 on Dell servers using iDRAC, dellemc.openmanage library and the autoinstall Ubuntu iso that we have created. This script currently supports the dell machines only.

To run the playbook:

```bash
ansible-playbook -i inventory install_os.yml
