Re: [ansible-project] 1 big repo OR separate repo per app/group?

[Michel Blanc]

Le 10/02/2016 21:44, Guy Matz a écrit :


Does anyone have an opinion as to whether it's better to keep all
ansible code in one repo, or whether it's better to keep separate repos
for each group/app/arbitrary distinction?  I can see the benefits and
pitfalls of both, but can't tell which outweighs the other.

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.


Hi Guy,

I've probably tried a broad spectrum on this topic, from a huge playbook 
covering all my systems, to something very fine grained. I now lie in 
the middle.


My first approach few years ago was to try to encompass all my needs in 
one playbook . I didn't even have roles (it was more a side feature at 
that time). The result was, of course, something completely unusable: 
side effects were numerous, things were failing all the time, and 
configuration drift started to cripple in. So, in the end, whatever you 
choose do, please just don't do this. You wont manage everything in one 
playbook and one inventory (unless you have a small, i.e.. 
"project-size", infrastructure). It will just grow to a monster that 
will eat you.


Now, assuming you have dedicated systems per project, I (currently) 
think the right size is the project size.


- one repo per role
- one repo containing playbooks & inventories (you might have several 
inventories e.g. dev, prod, ...)

- each required role as a submodule in playbook's roles/
- one ansible.cfg to point to the proper inventory (dev by default, to 
limit production accidents)


Having roles as submodules in playbook will let you improve roles 
without impacting other projects.


I usually split my playbooks per topic (baseline install, daemons, 
application, ...) but I try to limit splitting as it complicates things 
(variable, facts & handlers scoping). I use tags when I can but they 
come with the same limitations, although fact caching (I use Redis) 
helps a bit.


I also try to list each role explicitely in my playbooks, and try not to 
rely on dependency magic (and I don't use Galaxy).
Listing dependencies explicitely helps tracking down problems, and makes 
playbooks much more readable. Generally speaking, role coupling is your 
worst enemy.


I am pretty happy with this setup right now, but in the end, it is very 
dependent on your environment and style.

[ansible-project] ERROR! privilege output closed while waiting for password prompt: BECOME-SUCCESS

[Mark Maas]

Hi All,

The following playbook worked fine with Ansible 1.9.4, but is breaking in 
2.0.0.2:

1.9.4 version:

---

- hosts:
  - all
  gather_facts: True

- name: Do local stuff
  hosts: 127.0.0.1
  connection: local
  tasks:
  - name: Add dev environment to hostsfile
sudo: true
lineinfile:
  dest: "/etc/hosts"
  regexp: "{{ item }}"
  line: "{{ hostvars[item]['ansible_default_ipv4']['address'] }} {{ item }}"
with_items: groups.all

  - name: Remove existing hostkey
shell: "ssh-keygen -R {{ item }}"
with_items: groups.all

  - name: Add new host key
shell: "ssh-keyscan {{ item }} >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts"
with_items: groups.all

and this is the 2.0.0.2 version:

---

- hosts: all
  gather_facts: True
  tasks:
  - name: setup
setup:

- name: Do local stuff
  hosts: localhost
  connection: local
  tasks:
  - name: Add dev environment to hostsfile
lineinfile:
  dest: "/etc/hosts"
  regexp: "{{ item }}"
  line: "{{ hostvars[item]['ansible_default_ipv4']['address'] }} {{ item }}"
with_items: groups.all
become: true
delegate_to: localhost

  - name: Remove existing hostkey
shell: "ssh-keygen -R {{ item }}"
with_items: groups.all

  - name: Add new host key
shell: "ssh-keyscan {{ item }} >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts"

I was thinking that using connection: local somehow interfered with become:

still didn’t work.

I tried things with become: root, delegate_to, changing things in 
inventory, nothing seems to work. I’d love any suggestion?

Thanks!

[ansible-project] Re: wait_for a windows file

['J Hawkesworth' via Ansible Project]

Hmm wait_for is a python module.

waiting for the port will work fine as that will presumably be happening on 
the ansible controller, rather than remotely on the machine you are trying 
to access.

If only waiting for a file will do then you could try using the fetch 
module to pull the file back you want to collect (fetch runs against 
windows hosts), then examine the file on the ansible controller.
Would likely need to be  wrapped in a block / rescue / always block - 
see http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_blocks.html, and you might 
need to start off by waiting for a certain amount of time to avoid having 
to have multiple blocks to retry, but it might be enough to get you going.

Hope this helps,

Jon

[ansible-project] Re: Running NSSM from copied executables on windows and avoid installing NSSM

[Joe Levis]

Ishan,

The raw module works pretty much the same on Windows as it does on Linux - 
anything you can run on the command line can be run using the raw module. 
So, if you are wanting to use this nssm.exe rather than actually installing 
nssm, you would simply specify the path to the executable and pass whatever 
arguments it enables.

I haven't found a way to specify the AppDirectory upon creation of the 
service, so what I do is run the raw module to set that *after* the service 
has been created. For you, this might look something like this:

raw: C:\path\to\nssm.exe set [ServiceName] AppDirectory 
C:\path\to\appdirectory


Hope this helps.


-Joe

Re: [ansible-project] 389 server stops after Ansible "hangs up"

[Brian Coca]

command/shell are not good ways of starting services, setup a init
script/system|upstart configuration instead.

But "if you must", add `nohup` to the command as Ansible immediately
terminates the tty and the 'daemon' might not have detached yet or detach
correctly which can stall/kill the process.

[ansible-project] deploying ansible with ansible

[Frederic Van Espen]

Hi,

We have an existing architecture where one host manages a number of hosts. 
Any of these hosts could be managing a number of other hosts. So we have a 
tree like architecture.

  MASTER HOST
   |
  / \
/-   --\\
   /\\
HOST A HOST B  HOST C
  |
 / \
   /-   \
  /  \
  HOST D   HOST E

Hosts on one level can only directly access hosts on the level below that 
are managed by them. So the master host can access hosts A, B and C only. 
Host A can only access hosts D and E.

We are thinking now of using ansible to manage the tree of hosts but we'd 
like to keep the existing architecture where the master host can manage 
host A, B and C through ansible. Host A should in turn manage hosts D and E 
through ansible.

Can this be done? Can I deploy ansible with ansible? Is anyone elso doing 
something similar? I'm thinking of starting to use this for something 
simple like deploying ssh public keys in authorized_keys files.

Thanks for any feedback.

Frederic

[ansible-project] Want EIP to move uncondtionally

[Shaun Brady]

Hello,
Previously I had a playbook that would create an instance and associate an
EIP
with it.  If this EIP was on another host, it would just be moved.  I now
get:

Resource.AlreadyAssociated
resource eipalloc-d26705b6 is already associated with associate-id
eipassoc-f7bf1d8f
693c1800-0a6d-4af4-9587-3f715fd8bd8c


I believe the change is moving from EC2-Classic to VPC.  If I just try use
ec2_eip to disassociate the address, I need to provide the instance id it is
currently associated with.  I don't see a straight forward way to look up
this
instance, as 1) I'm already in a play connected to a host, but more
importantly
2) I don't know if the host is up.

Is there a method I'm missing to say "disassociate this regardless of its
current status", or to easily look up the instance associated with the EIP?

For reference we are still on 1.9, but if the answer is in 2.0, that is in
our
future.

Thanks!

[ansible-project] Running NSSM from copied executables on windows and avoid installing NSSM

[ishan jain]

Hi,

I am trying to create some services on my windows machines with the help of 
NSSM and would like to automate the process with Ansible. NSSM module for 
ansible requires NSSM to be installed on the windows machine but i cannot 
do that as internet is disabled on my windows machine. I want to use the 
nssm.exe that i have copied on the remote server.

How can i tell ansible to use those copied executables to run NSSM ? I 
really need to specify the ApplicationDir, so i guess the ansible module is 
not going to be useful for me.

I think this problem will be solved via the raw module but honestly i do 
not understand it much. Maybe because there is no proper documentation of 
raw module for windows.

[ansible-project] Proper way to handle host data coming from multiple CSV files

[Con Hennessy]

Hi,
 I'm new to ansible and coming from a system where we have multiple CSV 
files defining
projects, hosts, and users which I cannot easily change.

If I want to run certain commands I need to gather info from several files. 

Is there is recommended way of doing this ?

I have been looking at the dynamic inventory, but I was hoping to us 
something better than
passing environment variables to the inventory.

(Actually I'm a python guy and I was hoping that the inventory module could 
be written in python
and actually called as a module internally by ansible rather than an 
executable script.)

Any direction or pointers would be appreciated,
Con

[ansible-project] Re: Global hooks/tasks

[Tobias Wolf]

We had this discussion over lunch, i.e., we pondered how we could get 
ansible to trigger etckeeper on each host at the conclusion of the 
playbook. We excluded handlers because handlers are not executed once a 
playbook fails.

Did you find a way to cleanly create a hook like this with having to append 
this to each playbook individually?

Re: [ansible-project] When conditional bug in Ansible 2.0.0.2 ?

[Brian Coca]

The previous exception was ignored in this case, 2.0 does not ignore
exceptions, that is the main difference.

​This is not a deprecated feature, it was an unreported error.​

I'm not saying that it is not a problem, just that it is not as easy to
mark as 'deprecated' when there was no knob to 'turn off this feature' but
a general tightening on propagating and capturing errors.

[ansible-project] Ansible Contributor Summit

[Robyn Bergeron]

Greetings!

Ansible will be holding our first contributor summit on Wednesday, February
17th in London, the day before AnsibleFest.

The Ansible core team will be collaborating in person with some of the most
prolific members of the Ansible community, and the session will be
available to all via IRC and streaming media. Details about the schedule
and topics, along with where and when to participate, can be found here:

https://public.etherpad-mozilla.org/p/ansible-summit

We’ll be doing our best to document the in-person comments and
conversations on IRC, as well as streaming and recording the meeting, so
that folks can participate remotely or view the activity and output
afterwards.

And of course, when we’re done, we’ll be sure to let everyone know the
output of our day in a blog post or email.

Cheers,

-Robyn

Re: [ansible-project] When conditional bug in Ansible 2.0.0.2 ?

[Mark Maas]

Understood, we can call it all kinds of things, but companies and/or teams
have been building playbooks with these things. They are now breaking.
One team I know is now using it as an excuse to start using puppet again as
"Ansible is still a moving target".

This isn't a rant. ... ...well maybe a litte ;-)   But it's also an
observation. Ansible really needs to be carefull with these sort of
changes. I don't want people to turn to other things because of things like
this.

[ansible-project] How to mount all ephemeral ?

[Roy]

Hi,


 I was creating a playbook to spin up an EC2 instance and then mount all 
available ephemeral mount to /mnt/ephemeral0, /mnt/ephemeral1 ... etc.

First thing I want to do it activate all available ephemeral drive on 
specific instance in the playbook 
Then mount all drive to specific mount point.

I was looking at http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/ec2_module.html
for this task, but I didnt find. Am I looking at wrong module ?

Thanks

Basically something like this (which does not work, I have not
tested why):

[ansible-project] Re: Using ansible to call python script with subprocess module to run sqlplus script, Ansible shows missing sqlplus...?

[bryan . yu]

Environment variables needed to be set for sqlplus + ansible interaction

using shell module with executable /bin/bash and setting specific 
environment variables (without referencing other env vars) fixed this. If 
anyone else uses ansible with sqlplus, here's a better play for you

- name: Run python script
  shell: python script.py
chdir=dir/dir1/dir2
executable=/bin/bash
  register: script_result
  environment:
ORACLE_HOME: /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64

[ansible-project] Using ansible to call python script with subprocess module to run sqlplus script, Ansible shows missing sqlplus...?

[bryan . yu]

Hello all,

I am using ansible to deploy and provision some instances then runs a 
python script at the very end. The python script uses the subprocess module 
 to 
call a sql script and generate flat text files. When I directly ssh into 
the instances and run remotely, everything works. However when I use 
ansible to call the python script it looks like commands don't get passed 
to the Popen construct OR sqlplus is not installed??? Which is weird cause 
it definitely is installed. This may be a more python oriented question but 
since I only have the issue when using Ansible to run the python program... 
I'm posting here. 

Ansible: 
ansible webservers -i inventory --vault-password-file ~/.vault_pass.txt -u 
ec2-user -m command -a "python script.py chdir=dir/dir1/dir2"

Python:
connect_string=username/password@connectionObject
sql_command=@sql_script.sql

def run_sql_query(sql_command, connect_string):
  """
  Run sqlCommand and return query result and error Message
  """
  session = Popen(['sqlplus', '-S', connect_string], stdin=PIPE, 
stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE)
  session.stdin.write(sql_command)
  return session.communicate()

Error:
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 710, in __init__
errread, errwrite)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1335, in _execute_child
raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

A closer look shows that one of the following is happening:

1) /bin/bash: sqlplus: command not found
 
HOW???

[ansible-project] Re: win_copy failing

['J Hawkesworth' via Ansible Project]

I don't think win_copy can collect from a share like you are trying to do 
in the example above.

The assumption is that the source file you are copying is on the ansible 
controller.

One trick you could use is to run smbclient on the ansible controller to 
collect the files you want to deploy to your windows clients first, then 
you can win_copy them across.

You might be able to use script to collect files from a share but you are 
likely to need to pass credentials to the script running on your windows 
machines (windows makes a distinction about whether or not you are logged 
in as an interactive user - if you are not, such as when you are using 
remoting - then different permissions apply and you may not have access to 
the remote share).

Hope this helps,

Jon

[ansible-project] Re: Adding Multiple Lines to file (Windows Servers)

['J Hawkesworth' via Ansible Project]

blockinfile is not a windows module unfortunately.

There is an as yet un merged module for manipulating the windows hosts file 
though - perhaps give that a try 
- https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-extras/pull/1455

Hope that helps,

Jon

[ansible-project] Adding Multiple Lines to file (Windows Servers)

[Mark Matthews]

Hi

I am trying to add multiple lines to the host file on some Windows servers.

If I use the following playbook I can add one line:

---
- name: Add host file entries
  hosts: all
  tasks:
- name: Check if line is present in config
  win_lineinfile:
dest: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
line: "x.x.x.x   www.website1.com"


I have tried the following, but keep getting errors:

---
- name: Add host file entries
  hosts: all
  tasks:
- name: Add host file entries
  blockinfile:
dest: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
block: 
  10.10.3.76   www.website1.com
  10.10.3.77   www.website1.com
  10.10.3.19   www.website1.com
  10.10.10.2   www.website1.com
  10.10.3.74   www.website1.com


Does anyone know of way that this can be done?

[ansible-project] Re: Adding Multiple lines to file

['J Hawkesworth' via Ansible Project]

Lots of examples of the various ways to loop 
here: http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_loops.html#standard-loops

Depending on what you are trying to achieve, you might actually find the 
win_template module is easier to work with rather than multiple calls to 
win_lineinfile

Hope this helps,

Jon

[ansible-project] When conditional bug in Ansible 2.0.0.2 ?

[Mark Maas]

Hi List,

So I got this great thing here:

```
- name: Copy custom nrpe plugins
  template:
src: "{{ item }}"
dest: "{{ nrpe.plugins }}"
mode: 0755
owner: "{{ nrpe.user }}"
group: "{{ nrpe.user }}"
  tags: update_nrpe
  notify: restart nrpe
  with_fileglob: "../templates/plugins/{{ nrpe_scripts }}/*"
  when: nrpe_scripts is defined
```

Works a treat with 1.9, it would be really easy to add service checks for 
special server cases.
With Ansible 2.0.0.2 this breaks, because 2.0 tries to fill the fileglob 
before looking at the when: conditional. And since the nrpe_scripts is not 
defined for most servers, it breaks!

An ugly hack would be to put a general variable in group_vars/all that just 
makes it look into an empty directory or something.

Is this a bug? or intended?

Thanks,
Mark

Re: [ansible-project] Random undefined variables (facts) since ansible 2.0 upgrade

In our case, the facts are being gathered, and used other plays included in 
site.yml, but later on in a subsequent play the a fact that was defined 
previously is suddenly undefined, on some random hosts, but not all.  It's 
happening on windows and linux hosts.

Re: [ansible-project] When conditional bug in Ansible 2.0.0.2 ?

[Matt Martz]

This is expected.  `when` statements work on each iteration of the `with_`
loop, and as such the `when` statements are effectively inspected *after*
`with_` loops.

Ansible 1.9 may have allowed this to pass due to a bug in logic, however
2.0 is more strict, and is properly failing.

Re: [ansible-project] When conditional bug in Ansible 2.0.0.2 ?

[Mark Maas]

Interesting.

But people would expect a time of "deprecated but works" at the least.
And besides, I find the original way more logical. (Which will be so for 
more people, necessitating a deprecation warning,  not a complete failure)

I'm noticing a lot of stuff gone, sort of broken, changed behavior, between 
these two ansible versions. Not good for the mindset of people who I just 
managed to get onboard with Ansible.

Thanks,
Mark

Thanks for the suggestion.  I had been using ansible's 'service' module and

[ansible-project] Suppress URI module when combined with UNTIL

[Ben Friedman]

I'm interfacing with a REST API using the URI module.  I need to wait until 
the return data from the API has a parameter set to a certain string.  I 
also have to use 'no_log: true' so that the URI module does not print 
sensitive data(uri username/password) to the screen as other 
systems(jenkins) are calling this playbook.

Everything was fine until Ansible 2.0.  Now with 2.0, even with no_log set, 
the URI module will print the request body along with the username and 
password to screen on FAILED attempts, even though it's waiting for the 
'UNTIL' condition to be true.  

Is there any way to disable this output?

Sample task:

- name: wait until the resource responds with a status of ON
  uri:
url: "{{ url }}/resources/{{ item.split('.')[0] }}"
method: GET
user: "{{ user }}"
password: "{{ pass }}"
return_content: yes
validate_certs: no
   register: statusCode_output
   until: statusCode_output.json.statusCode == "ON"
   retries: 30
   delay: 60
   no_log: True
   with_items: groups.created_hosts

So, the functionality still works with 2.0.  However, every 60 seconds, until 
the condition is true, it prints this to the screen.  I've truncated the data 
but basically it's the entire request body, along with my username/password, 
and the response from the API


TASK [resource_project_management : wait until the resource responds with a 
statusCode of ON] ***

*FAILED - RETRYING: TASK: resource_project_management : wait until the resource 
responds with a statusCode of ON (29 retries left). Result was: {u'status': 
200, .*

"Endpoint": "http://xx.xx.xxx.xxx:800;,
"Zookeeper": {
  "Host": "//xx.xxx.xxx.xx:2181,xx.xxx.xxx.xx:2181,xx.xxx.xxx.xx:2181",
  "Path": "/marathon-haproxy/state",
  "ReportingDelay": 5
}
  },

I wanted to dynamically update the below line using lineinfile
"Endpoint": "http://xx.xx.xxx.xxx:800;,

My Ansible has the below code
lineinfile: dest=/var/bamboo/production.json.bak state=present regexp="^ 
 \"Bamboo\"":" {" insertafter="  \"Bamboo\"":"\{" line="\"Endpoint\"":" 
\"http://{{ansible_default_ipv4.address}}:8080\; "

For some reason, it is adding the line to the EOF. 

Can someone please suggest on how can i fix it?

[ansible-project] iterating over IPv4/IPv6 (parallel) + TCP ports (nested)

[nusenu]

Hi,

similar to a question from about a year ago [1], I'm looking for the
best way to loop over 3 lists:

- {{ ansible_all_ipv4_addresses }}
- {{ ansible_all_ipv6_addresses | ipv6('public') }}
- tcpports


ipv4 and ipv6 IPs should iterate in parallel (I'll check that their list
lengths are matching) while tcpports should be combined in nested mode.


I guess this is a common use-case?

[ansible-project] Ansible playbook to deploy a VM in a PXEBOOT envrionment

[Stuart Cracraft]

My present Ansible playbook can spin-up a VM in the interactive Ubuntu 
installation (e.g. waiting for you to select the language on the first 
screen), but I've not been able to get it instead to go to the 
PXEBOOT/KICKSTART server on the same network. The P/K works fine when F12 
is pressed and it goes off and builds a complete server of any kind on my 
stack but I want to be able to initiate that with a transformation of the 
Ansible playbook below and have no idea how to do it after a pretty 
thorough review of documents on the Internet. If anyone knows how this can 
be accomplished and could comment, I'd sure appreciate it.

[ansible-project] Re: How do I use multiple ansible versions on the same machine for different playbooks that require specific versions?

[ProfHase]

I would propose you to use python's virtualenvs:

virtualenv ansible17
source ansible17/bin/activate
pip install ansible==1.7
# work with it
deactivate
# next time
source ansible17/bin/activate


It is the same approach as you are using, but as virtualenv encapsulates 
the whole environment, so you don't need to bother about the dependencies

[ansible-project] Re: How to make symbolic links in windows via Ansible ?

['J Hawkesworth' via Ansible Project]

Obviously you will need to connect as an Administrator user.

You don't mention which version of windows you are controlling but you may 
just need to temporarily disable UAC prompt for Administrator users.

On Server 2012 the setting for this is in

 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin
0

set it back to 2 to restore current default behaviour.

Hope this helps.  I have not used mklink though.

[ansible-project] Powershell Script playbook no running on servers

[Mark Matthews]

Hi

I have a playbook that is running the below powershell script.
If I run the script on the actual server it works perfectly. But when I run 
the playbook nothing happens on the server.
The job returns as changedbut nothing has happened.

The playbook does seem to run quite quickly and I was wondering if Ansible 
is stopping the Powershell job before it completes? Can Ansible do that, or 
does it not have any effect on the script after it has been executed? If it 
does have an efffect on stopping the job are you able to put a wait on the 
job to allow the powershell script to complete?

$InstallPath = "C:\Program Files\Octopus Deploy\Tentacle"
$Server = $InstallPath + "\Tentacle.exe"

# Start-Process "C:\Temp\Octopus.Tentacle.3.0.10.2278-x64.msi" /qn -Wait

Start-Process $Server 'create-instance --instance "Tentacle" --config 
"C:\Octopus\Tentacle.config"' -Wait
Start-Process $Server 'new-certificate --instance "Tentacle" --if-blank' 
-Wait
Start-Process $Server 'configure --instance "Tentacle" --reset-trust' -Wait
Start-Process $Server 'configure --instance "Tentacle" --home "C:\Octopus" 
--app "C:\Octopus\Applications" --port "10933" --noListen "False"' -Wait
Start-Process $Server 'configure --instance "Tentacle" --trust 
"xxx"' -Wait
Start-Process $Server 'service --instance "Tentacle" --install --start' 
-Wait

[ansible-project] Re: Powershell Script playbook no running on servers

['J Hawkesworth' via Ansible Project]

Hmm, not sure what is going on there.

Try running with -v so you can see stdout from script module output

Also check the event log to see if there is anything there.

When run on the server do  you have accept UAC prompt?  Might need to turn 
that off to run remotely via ansible.

Hope this helps,

Jon

Re: [ansible-project] Possible to loop over conditional variables?

[Brian Huddleston]

Thanks for the feedback, it took a bit for me to understand.  I think I 
might be better off declare them individually in my example since that is 
much easier for other to read and add to and I can see possible text errors 
with all the brackets and parens that have to be used for each additional 
item. (say I wanted to add 3 more variables to check)

Turning off fact caching completely did not improve the situation.

Hi Matt

How exactly would that look like in a playbook?

Re: [ansible-project] Re: galaxy vs. Ubuntu 15.10

[Chris Houseknecht]

As taken from meta/main.yml created using `ansible-galaxy init` after 
Ubuntu Wily was added:

#- name: Ubuntu
  #  versions:
  #  - all
  #  - lucid
  #  - maverick
  #  - natty
  #  - oneiric
  #  - precise
  #  - quantal
  #  - raring
  #  - saucy
  #  - trusty
  #  - utopic
  #  - vivid
  #  - wily


Ubuntu releases are by name rather than version, so you'll want to use 
'wily'.

Re: [ansible-project] Random undefined variables (facts) since ansible 2.0 upgrade

[Michael Baydoun]

We do, and have been looking at that.  The facts for all hosts are getting 
gathered/refreshed during the first included playbook in site.yml, and the 
cache is not supposed to be expiring for 3 hours, with our entire run 
taking less than 2 hours.  The cache files are present on disk, etcetera.  

We did launch a site.yml run with fact caching commented out of 
ansible.cfg, waiting to see how that run works.
