Description

Research direction

Start by reviewing the tasks in the linked test harness at ansible/roles/vector/tasks. Compare what those tasks configure with the needs of an Ansible role for Vector administration. Done means the proposed role covers the relevant setup tasks and is integrated into the project, but the issue does not define the supported scope or validation steps.
