[ansible-project] Re: Ansible Module to look up variables

[rup]

Not sure if this is exactly what you want to do, but have you tried using 
variables in your play using register?  I.e.

- name: Get python version
  shell: python -V
  register: python_version

- name: Show python version
  debug:
msg: "{{ python_version }}"

This will return the version on each host modified.  Sorry if this isn't 
related to your question, but seems like that was what you're looking for.

[ansible-project] Re: Question about organizing roles and playbooks

[rup]

We implemented this by having host files specific to an environment, so for 
example, a QA host file, a Prod host file, a Dev host file, etc.  Then the 
groupings within the host file would be based off what they were used for, 
for example:

[wildfly_servers]
HostA
HostB

[activemq_servers]
HostB

[db_servers]
HostA

[akka_servers]
HostB

[php_servers]
HostA

[php_innovations_servers]
HostA

Then when calling the playbook, we just pull in the appropriate host file 
for the environment we want to have updated.  Is this what you were talking 
about?

I solved it by simply sourcing each profile I needed prior to the step I 
wanted to execute.  For example:

- name: Run some step
  shell: . /pathtobashrc/.bashrc && . /pathtoprofile/profile && step I 
wanted to execute

[ansible-project] Re: Spin Up Jenkins on AWS instance

[rup]

Sometimes it's a matter of timing.  If it's sporadically happening, perhaps 
the ssh connection isn't happening within the 10 second default used by 
Ansible.  To override this default you need to specify in your config file.

[ansible-project] Re: What I supposed to do with a long time no response Ansible playbook process?

[rup]

To find current process, run this to get PID to kill:

 ps -ef|grep ansible

A command I use to watch Ansible processes as they are running is:

 watch -n 3 'netstat -ta | egrep ":ssh +EST"'

So I can follow along with what's being run.

We also have a similar issue when the ssh times out.  We've been having

setting up a config file to override the 10 second timeout default.  Just a

But using the service module isn't quite that simple, right?  You have to 
set up your init script to identify the services that the module would 
call.  That's where I'm at currently.

[ansible-project] Re: How to run ansible playbook with Bamboo or jenkins

[rup]

We have ssh keys established between our Jenkins server and our Ansible 
server.  Then in the Jenkins job, we have an Execute Shell command with an 
entry like so...

ssh ansible@ansible_server_address -C "cd 
~ansible/playbooks;ansible-playbook -i hostsfile site.yml --extra-vars 
"whatever vars you want to pass" -vv"

We have the Jenkins job set to run periodically (i.e. cron'd)

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

[rup]

Without looking too closely at your code/error I ran into what may be a 
related issue.  It's because the shell is not sourcing the profiles of the 
SSH user.  I had to update my shell command to source my bashrc and 
primarily my profile first before executing my command like so:

shell: . /path to home/.bashrc && . /path to profile/profile && [command to 
run here]

Hope that helps, it was a very hard journey to figure this out for my 
installation.

We are also running activemq which uses java processes, so we have to
