The problem might be DEFAULT_HOST_LIST. The doc says
DEFAULT_HOST_LIST: "Comma separated list of Ansible inventory sources"
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/config.html#default-host-list
Fix the configuration. For example in ansible.cfg
[defaults]
inventory = /sdd/ansible-production/inventory/oracle,
/sdd/ansible-production/inventory/other
(note: ini_file doesn't handle multi-line entries #4413)
https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/issues/4413
If this does not help proceed with the simplified test below.
I had set this option also to *directory* "inventory", but this does not seem
to be a problem and I was not able to reproduce the behaviour where the groups
"oracle" and "other" swap the hosts.
$ grep inventory ansible.cfg
inventory = $PWD/inventory
$ tree inventory/
inventory/
├── oracle
└── other
$ cat inventory/oracle
[oracle]
lx00011010d
$ cat inventory/other
[other]
lx00016141d
$ tree group_vars
group_vars
├── all.yml
└── oracle.yml
$ cat group_vars/all.yml
users:
- username: jeff5
$ cat group_vars/oracle.yml
users:
- username: oracle
$ ansible-inventory --list --var
[...]
"oracle": {
"hosts": [
"lx00011010d"
]
},
"other": {
"hosts": [
"lx00016141d"
]
}
The goal is to explain why you see the groups "oracle" and "other" swapping
the hosts. Try to reproduce the simplified test above, step by step increase
the complexity of the use-case and isolate the problem.
