Look at `provision_vars.yml` for the variables used for the Azure provisioning and change them as necessary.\r\n\r\nIf you are going to use Chocolatey's [Quick Deployment Environment](https://chocolatey.org/docs/quick-deployment-environment) then there is a little more work to be done (see the comments in the file).\r\n\r\nTo provision one or more windows clients you need to run the `create_win_client_instance.yml` playbook. If you are using Chocolatey's Quick Deployment Environment, you should run `provision_qde_client.yml` on each Windows client.\r\n\r\nThe `configure_chocolatey_business.yml` playbook will configure your Chocolatey For Business clients to use the Quick Deployment Environment (QDE) server as a package source. If you are not using QDE then you will need to amend this playbook.\r\n\r\n### Problems?\r\n\r\nIf you come across any problems then please raise an issue as normal. If you find yourself fixing an issue then please raise a pull request.\r\n\r\n### Finally\r\n\r\nWe haven't covered every aspect of the demo here. See the video for more information (we will provide a link when / if it's released).","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpauby%2Fansiblefest2020","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpauby%2Fansiblefest2020","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpauby%2Fansiblefest2020/lists"}
