## 2. Global Variables
Global variables apply across your Ansible project and are loaded from `vars.yml` by default. These variables define common settings such as hypervisor connection details and the boot ISO path. They can be overridden by inventory variables for specific hosts or VMs if needed.

### 4.3 Example Usage
An effective way to use the playbook involves defining all necessary configurations within a `vars.yml` file. This file should include all relevant global variables tailored to your specific deployment requirements. Additionally, you should prepare an inventory file (`inventory.yml`) that lists all the hosts along with any specific inventory variables they might need. Then, you can run the playbook as follows:
An effective way to use the playbook involves defining all necessary configurations within a vars file (for example, `vars_example.yml`). This file should include all relevant global variables tailored to your specific deployment requirements. Additionally, you should prepare an inventory file (`inventory.yml`) that lists all the hosts along with any specific inventory variables they might need. Then, you can run the playbook as follows:
```bash
ansible-playbook -i inventory.yml -e @vars.yml main.yml
ansible-playbook -i inventory.yml -e @vars_example.yml main.yml
```
This command prompts Ansible to execute the `main.yml` playbook, applying configurations defined in both `vars.yml` and the inventory file.

Use `inventory_example.yml`, `inventory_libvirt_example.yml`, `vars_example.yml`, and the bare-metal examples as starting points for new inventories.
