Hi,

I have two testing environments, located in different regions. Within each 
of those environments, among all the servers, there is a monitoring server. 
In one of my ansible roles I would like to be able to select the ip address 
of the relevant monitoring server. I thought that I could use a combination 
of hostvars, intersect and the relevant groups to be able to select the 
right server. An example of what I currently have is as follows:

hostvars[groups['test'] | intersect(groups[region]) | 
intersect(groups['monitoring_server']) | 
first].rax_addresses[network_name][0].addr

In the above example, the variable 'region' could either be GIB, or LON. 
The 2 monitoring servers each exist in the test group and the 
monitoring_server group. They then each exist in a group which reflects the 
region they serve.

I am expecting hostvars to return just one of the two servers - the one 
that is in all three of the groups. However, at the moment both servers are 
being returned.

Have I misinterpreted how the intersect should work, or am I doing it 
wrong? Are there other ways to achieve what I'm attempting to do here?

Thanks!

Dan.
