Hi @cbass
Resources, these are our primary admin hubs with linkouts to and examples for topic-specific resources
- admin documentation
https://docs.galaxyproject.org/
- admin tutorials
- related prior Q&A at this forum
https://help.galaxyproject.org/search?q=ansible
This guide is for a very simple install. There are other basic deployment types with more pre-configured. One example is the Docker Ansible Galaxy
Definitely backup/clone what you have before making changes, unless you decide to start over and use a different deployment baseline.
The database should be upgraded to Postgres for any use-case that isn’t temporary. Why is explained the admin docs in the "Administration` section, along with other strongly recommended basic configuration updates. You’ll notice that the most useful advance configs are already in place (and can be custom modified) in containerized and cloud deployment choices.
This specific Q&A isn’t summarized in a topic at this forum yet. So, let’s leave this topic as a single reference specific for the “ansible” overview of primary Galaxy options/resources. If you have another question, please start up a new topic. You can reference this topic by URL (or any other prior Q&A) for context.
Hope that helps
