Update:
Further I went ahead and created a hosts file in my "ansible-virtualenv"
and passed the path in the global ansible.cfg file.
Ran the following command in virtualenv and now I have following issue
*ansible win -i hosts -m win_ping*
[WARNING]: * Failed to parse
/root/ansible-virtualenvs/ansible-virtualenv/playbook/hosts with yaml
plugin: Syntax
Error while loading YAML. expected '<document start>', but found
'<scalar>' The error appears to have been in
'/root/ansible-virtualenvs/ansible-virtualenv/playbook/hosts': line 4,
column 1, but may be elsewhere in the file
depending on the exact syntax problem. The offending line appears to be:
[win] abc012.abctst.lcl
ansible_host=10.12.12.12 ^ here
[WARNING]: * Failed to parse
/root/ansible-virtualenvs/ansible-virtualenv/playbook/hosts with ini
plugin: /root
/ansible-virtualenvs/ansible-virtualenv/playbook/hosts:11: Expected
key=value, got: ansible_user:
ansible.dep...@abctst.lcl
[WARNING]: Unable to parse
/root/ansible-virtualenvs/ansible-virtualenv/playbook/hosts as an inventory
source
[WARNING]: No inventory was parsed, only implicit localhost is available
[WARNING]: provided hosts list is empty, only localhost is available. Note
that the implicit localhost does not
match 'all'
abc012.ARITST.LCL | UNREACHABLE! => {
"changed": false,
"msg": "Failed to connect to the host via ssh: ssh: connect to host
10.12.12.206 port 22: Connection refused\r\n",
"unreachable": true
I have mentioned in my hosts file created in "ansible-virtualenv" follwoing
vars:
[win:vars]
ansible_user: ansible.dep...@abc.lcl
ansible_password: xxxxxxxxxxx
ansible_port=5985
ansible_connection=winrm
ansible_winrm_server_cert_validation: ignore
Why is it still trying to use port 22?
