Hello everyone, I am a pretty new face to Ansible. I can follow instruction pretty good however, I need your help with the following scenario. I created an .INI style inventory file called "hosts", with basically categorize our devices/servers in different groups like below
+++++++++++++++++++ [Ubuntu] 192.168.100.105 192.168.100.106 [Windows] 192.168.100.200 192.168.100.201 [Mac] 192.168.100.300 192.168.100.301 ++++++++++++++++++++++ This inventory file is saved in ~/ansible/inventory/hosts Playbook file (called play1.yml) is saved in ~/ansible/plabooks/play1: check for updates I can ping the devices in [Windows] group using this command: $ ansible -i ./inventory/hosts Windows -m ping --user admin --ask-pass Now, I try to check for updates for just the devices/machines in [Windows] group, using this command: $ ansible-playbook ./playbooks/play1.yml --user admin --ask-pass --ask-become-pass -i ./inventory/hosts Windows It returns error that it does not know what devices/machines that I'm targeting at. In another word, it does not recognize my flag ./inventory/hosts Windows Could someone guide me how to make the proper reference to a specific group of the machines?
