Follow the steps from SSV documentation to generate the encrypted key: https://docs.ssv.network/operator-user-guides/operator-node/installation#generate-operator-keys-encrypted

Create the configfile according to the SSV documentation and point it to your EL & CL clients: https://docs.ssv.network/operator-user-guides/operator-node/installation#create-configuration-file

copy the encrypted key & config to the target machine and set the path in the ansible playbook (default path: /data/ssv).

EXAMPLE (both files are in the a folder called "ssv" beside your playbook):

- name: Copy ssv configs to remote server
  copy:
    src: "{{ playbook_dir }}/ssv/"
    dest: "/data/ssv"
