### Inventory Configuration
This project uses the ToalLab standard inventory located at `/home/ptoal/Dev/inventories/toallab-inventory`.
**Inventory Groups:**
- `hyperv` - Hyper-V hosts (hyperv1.lan.toal.ca)
- `windows_servers` - All Windows Server VMs
- `web_servers` - IIS/web servers
- `app_servers` - Application servers
- `db_servers` - Database servers
**Group Variables:**
- `/home/ptoal/Dev/inventories/toallab-inventory/group_vars/hyperv/vars.yml` - Hyper-V defaults
- `/home/ptoal/Dev/inventories/toallab-inventory/group_vars/windows_servers/vars.yml` - Windows defaults
**Host Variables:**
- `/home/ptoal/Dev/inventories/toallab-inventory/host_vars/hyperv1.lan.toal.ca/vars.yml` - Hypervisor config
### Variable Precedence
Follow this hierarchy (least to most specific):
1. `group_vars/all.yml` - Global defaults
2. `group_vars/<group>.yml` - Group-specific
3. `host_vars/<host>.yml` - Host-specific
1. `group_vars/all.yml` - Global defaults (in toallab-inventory)
2. `group_vars/<group>.yml` - Group-specific (in toallab-inventory)
3. `host_vars/<host>.yml` - Host-specific (in toallab-inventory)
4. Playbook `vars:` - Playbook overrides
5. Extra vars (`-e`) - Runtime overrides
