Hi all, Please excuse for my ignorance if there is a clean way to do the following:
hosts [sm] host1 [sw] host2 myplaybook.yml --- - hosts: all roles: - common - hosts: sm roles: - role1 - role2 - hosts: sw roles: - role1 - role3 ---------------------------- Assume that I can not combine tasks in role1 to common but I want to apply the run at the last play in the play book. What are the options? Since start-at-task will be the same for the role1 I can only start at 2nd play but not the the 3rd play. I certainly can intro a fake role as the first role or a pre-tasks task (have not tried this yet) to the 3rd play to possibly achieve this but that is not the point of how we can achieve this in a more systematic and clean way in Ansible. I can even break the plays into their own playbooks and then combine into a playbook: mynewplaybook.yml --- - include: play1.yml when: common is defined - include: play2.yml when: sm is defined - include: play3.yml when: sw is defined ----- And then use "-e sw=yes" to achieve this or even just create the mynewplaybook.yml or the original playbooks and then comment out the first 2 plays but then again would it be even possible to do start-at-play feature that is much cleaner than what I suggest here. Please share your better approaches and comments on this. Thank you very much and Ansible rocks.
