Hi , I have written few tests using ansible . basicall suspending a VM and then resuming again , taking snapshots etc.. I need to check success or failure of these operations. I am registering a vraibklle to capture the output as below and writing the results in a local file.
I am not sure about the correct way of capturing the success or failure through the registered variable. Thanks for your help! - name: Suspend the Single Machine local_action: module: vmware_guest hostname: '{{ hostname }}' username: '{{ username }}' password: '{{ password }}' name: '{{ item }}' esxi_hostname: '{{ esxi_hostname2 }}' template: '' is_template: no datacenter: '{{ datacenter_name }}' state: 'suspended' force: yes validate_certs: False with_items: - '{{ guest_list[0] }}' register: *taskresult1* ignore_errors: True - shell: echo "HPQC xxx Passed Suspend the Single VM" >> results.txt when: taskresult1|succeeded delegate_to: localhost - shell: echo "HPQC xxx Failed Suspend the Single VM" >> results.txt when: taskresult1|failed delegate_to: localhost taskresult1 has following content.
