Is there any way to define a variable as being the combination of several
lists. For example, define database_clients as being the combination of
all items in groups['app_servers'] and groups['processors']. I'd rather
define it once rather than use with_items in different places to combine
Yes, I'm thinking of one or more modules that gives the system
administrator the ability to do the most basic tasks directly from Ansible.
My vision is to automate the whole life cycle chain of a server, from
deployment, configuration, administation to decomission. In my environment

Hi,
sometimes, ansible fails on a machine and leaves back running but possibly
blocking and frozen processes such as
/usr/bin/python
/root/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1394441713.94-63420941773266/apt
Is there a way to clean up those processes?

We're going to use a different means of updating our instances:
1) Update the application AMI offline
2) Change the autoscaler to use the new AMI
3) Gracefully down and kill the old AMI instances in the ELB
4) The ELB will start up new AMI instances as the old ones die
5) Profit!

you can define in hosts file
[database_clients:children]
processors
app_servers
or in other ways groups['processors']|union(groups['app_servers'])

Hi Brian,
Thanks for the tip. I actually tried changing the hyphen to an underscore,
but no luck.
I think what's happening is that on Linux systems that aren't virtualized,
the 'ansible_virtualization_*' facts aren't getting set at all, so the
grouping mechanism can't handle it.
I'm thinking

easily in the future.

Is there any support / module in ansible for creating auto-scalling groups

How would one go about targeting hosts based on being them being in

No, but lots of folks like to run straight off the development branch, and
this helps us a ton with testing.

Ah, thank you very much, this indeed allowed me to shut down all
instances in an environment (code pasted below if anyone ever needs to

Thank you both.

Hi guys,
Super quick question we have -- wanted to know how people are downloading
Ansible.
There are also two related questions attempting to categorize whether
respondents are new or old users (as that might affect preferences? Maybe
not), and whether we're trending more towards dev or ops
It comes from the socket python module:
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/release1.5.0/library/system/setup#L165
Which does sort of the following:
Get the hostname of the server:
python -c import socket; print socket.gethostname()
Use that value to get the host by address:
python -c

Hi:
I'd like to do a nested loop over a sequence and a file glob. A simplified
example of what I thought might work is:
- command: cp {{ item[1] }} {{ item[1] }}.{{ item[0] }}
with_nested:
- with_sequence: start=0 end=10
- with_fileglob:
- /etc/*
However, this syntax doesn't
So with_fileglob works locally.
The sequence idea would generate a range of 1-10, but I'm having a bit
trouble modelling your end to end use case and may be able to suggest
something better.
Can you explain what the above sytntax would do and return?
Thanks!
