Re: [ansible-project] using multiple dynamic inventory scripts at once

this is dependent on implementation of the inventory scripts, they can return all host information with --list, if they do not ansible has to call them per host also. On Wed, Dec 10, 2014 at 6:27 PM, Florin Andrei wrote: > Okay, I placed both inventory scripts in ~/ansible/inventory and it works.

Okay, I placed both inventory scripts in ~/ansible/inventory and it works. The command opens an ssh connection to each host on both clouds. But, again, spying the process tree list while ansible is running, I've noticed something odd. (BTW, all runs are done after clearing the caches for both i

Re: [ansible-project] using multiple dynamic inventory scripts at once

Ansible supports inventory directories. If you place both ec2.py and digital_ocean.py in a directory called "inventory", you could then use: ansible -i ~/ansible/inventory -u my-special-user -f 20 -s \* -m shell -a 'ps' You could then also call each inventory script separately if you needed. O

ansible is not a programming language, variables are really pretty static, they can be overwritten but not really modified. If you want to create a new list that has the contents of 2 other lists, look at the set theory filters: with_items: packages|union(extra_packages) that should give you wha

I was thinking an implementation along the lines of the "lineinfile" module where you can edit a file and create a backup at the same time. For the sysctl module if you have to edit a sysctl.conf file then a backup seems like a good failsafe. On Tuesday, December 9, 2014 7:08:46 PM UTC-5, tkur
