I must also add that I've got a central group_vars/all file from which I
pull all the variables like region, instance types, environment specific
load balancer names, etc.

Hi Renaud,
I totally get what you are looking to achieve. Perhaps you've achieved it
already in the past year. Assuming that you are happy with specifying a start
index = x and a count = N to produce machines with names containing x, x+1,
x+2, ... x+N, I think the following playbook example wil
One more example to clear up uniqueness:
3 instances tagged Name=foo, SSH into 2nd instance:
ansible-ec2 ssh --name foo -u ec2-user -n 2
(sorted by public DNS name, I think)

Nice tool !
But your ssh example shows how a unique name is still unavoidable sometimes, be
it Tags or DNS based.
If I left instances with their EC2 birth names, I couldn’t just make up «
ansible-ec2 ssh --name web1 » when I need to log into a web server, I’d have to
« ansible-ec2 list » first
Actually yes. You can tag AWS resources and find them using tags. For
example, an Amazon Linux instance with tag Name=foo could be SSHed into
using
ansible-ec2 ssh --name foo -u ec2-user
You can find the code here:
https://github.com/pas256/ansible-ec2
It uses Ansible's EC2 inventory plugin
Hi Peter,
Very interesting talk and this is probably the better approach, thanks.
You do need to address individual servers from time to time though : ssh’ing
into them to debug something, for instance.
In this case, finding and copying the public_dns_name for a box sounds like a
pain, and a b

Hi Renaud,
People that have been using AWS for a while don't really use it this way,
or at least, they shouldn't. Treat servers like cattle, not pets.
If you haven't yet, take a look at AutoScaling Groups:

Thanks Michael,
I know (and mentioned) I’ll need to use the route53 module, that’s not the
difficulty here.
I did some more research and it looks like ‘with_together' is what I was
looking for.
If anyone is looking to do the same (it's a quite common provisioning pattern) :
- provide an « inst

Hello,
The EC2 module's docs show how to create several instances at once using
the "count" variable, and register the results into another variable
("ec2").
You can then iterate on the created instances and do stuff (like add them
to an inventory group) using "with_items: ec2.instances"
