Thanks for your reply.
I tried using your suggestions, but I get this error:
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "err": "Error:
Partition(s) on /dev/nvme2n1 are being used.\n", "msg": "Error while
running parted script: /usr/sbin/parted -s -m -a optimal /dev/nvme2n1 --
unit KiB mklabel msdos mkpart primary ext4 0% 100%", "out": "", "rc": 1}
It works if I unmount the volume, though.
This is the code I'm using:
- name: Add new partition "{{ pgsql_volume }}" (/pgsql)
run_once: true
community.general.parted:
device: "{{ data_volume }}"
number: "{{ number }}"
fs_type: ext4
state: present
when: prod and not awsbau and not slave
- name: Create a ext4 filesystem on "{{ pgsql_volume }}" (/pgsql)
run_once: true
community.general.filesystem:
fstype: ext4
dev: "{{ pgsql_volume }}p{{ number }}"
when: prod and not awsbau and not slave
- name: Unomunt /data
ansible.posix.mount:
path: /data
state: unmounted
- name: Add new partition "{{ data_volume }}" (/data)
run_once: true
community.general.parted:
device: "{{ data_volume }}"
number: "{{ number }}"
fs_type: ext4
state: present
- name: Create a ext4 filesystem on "{{ data_volume }}" (/data)
run_once: true
community.general.filesystem:
fstype: ext4
dev: "{{ data_volume }}p{{ number }}"
- name: Mount /pgsql
ansible.posix.mount:
path: /pgsql
src: "{{ pgsql_volume }}{{ number }}"
fstype: ext4
state: mounted
opts: defaults
- name: Mount /data
ansible.posix.mount:
path: /data
src: "{{ data_volume }}{{ number }}"
fstype: ext4
state: mounted
opts: defaults
Also I noticed that the "Read device information (always use unit when
probing) " isn't being used. So I removed it.
