 The '''setup''' module is run automatically at the beginning of a playbook to populate variables for each node.  The above playbook will dump the value of each node’s ''ansible_hostname'' variable.  To run the playbook on a single node, replace ''nodes'' with the name of one of your slice nodes (e.g., slice338.pcvm3-7.instageni.nps.edu).

+Next you will write a playbook to install the software you'll need on all the nodes.  Below is a skeleton Ansible file that you use ([attachment:software-install.yaml download]).  You will need to fill in the bits marked `# INSERT ARGUMENTS HERE` based on the instructions in the following section.  If you get stuck at any point, you can take a look at this [attachment:software-install-solution.yaml solution].
