Will Szumski bc66151567 Use /usr/bin/virsh instead of /bin/virsh
On RedHat based distros /bin/ is a symlink to /usr/bin:

[will@dev-director ~]$ ls -lia /bin
410146 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 7 Jun 11 12:07 /bin -> usr/bin

Whereas on the Ubuntu it is seperate directory. Using
/usr/bin/virsh should work on both.

ubuntu:

stack@ubuntu:~/ansible-role-libvirt-vm$ whereis virsh
virsh: /usr/bin/virsh /usr/share/man/man1/virsh.1

centos:

[will@dev-director ~]$ whereis virsh
virsh: /usr/bin/virsh /usr/share/man/man1/virsh.1.gz

Also removed a misleading comment. QEMU uses differnt
"instances" for privaleged and user access i.e the
"system" and "session" instances. The comment seemed
to suggest using /bin/virsh would connect to the
system instance (at least that is how I read it).

Tenks

Tenks is a utility that manages virtual bare metal clusters for development and testing purposes. It offers:

  • Declarative definition of clusters using Ansible's familiar YAML syntax
  • Automated creation and deletion of virtualised bare metal nodes across any number of hypervisors
  • In-built management of Open vSwitch bridges for physical networks
  • Registration of nodes and ports with OpenStack Ironic, and creation of OpenStack Nova flavors
  • Simple cluster reconfiguration and tear-down

To get started with Tenks, see the documentation (linked below).
