    I totally agree. To be proficient in automation you need a solid
    knowledge of the system. The LPIC2 strength lies right here.


Unfortunately we're reaching the point where Automation is standard, not just for CI/CD Dev tooling environments.**

So there's a good argument or LPIC-2 sysadmins to at least know how to identify and even kick off Ansible playbooks.  Same with a system that pulls Puppet manifests of modules, and could modify the system.

At some point we're probably even going to see basic identification in the 102 exam (LPIC-1 level).**

**P.S.  For those that aren't aware, the RHCE is now the EX294 exam, no longer EX300, with RHEL8 (2019+).  It's not hands-on-'end'-system, but completely Ansible engine-deployment based now.  You do not manually configure the system ... at all. *[ex294]*

why is Ansible be part of the new RHCE exam? Maybe the reason is that Red Hat had bought Ansible from Michael DeHaan in 2015 and want to push Ansible to be the Number 1 configuration management tool in the Linux World?

Just my thoughts
