Hi James, I have a doubt on your comment, Ansible runs playbook in order A,B,C for example and server B is a master server for example. How ansible runs shut down on C before B? It actually goes order A,B,C. Do you mean put the mentioned tasks in handler or tasks? I completely dint not get how we achieve this. Please give me some more details on this. Thanks.
