   2. Volume mapping on the host device for GitLab log files.
   3. Volume mapping on the host device for GitLab Data files.
   4. Published port mapping on the host device for HTTPS.
   5. Published port mapping on the host device for HTTP.
   6. Published port mapping on the host device for SSH access.
   7. Restart policy for the container.
4. Once all of the above changes are made, save the playbook and execute it using the following command.
