I have a set_fact task where I want to loop through some keys in a dict and only set the variable value based on certain conditions. What seems to be happening though is that the when: conditional is superseding with_items:, causing the conditional to fail and the task to not run. Is there a specific way I need to implement this, or is there maybe an issue with my syntax? - name: Set value if substring in key set_fact: var_a: "{{ item.key }} when: "substring_x in item.key" with_items: "{{ my_dict | dict2items }}" submitted by /u/FragilePower [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi there, I just start to use Ansible in our environment. Mixed feeling so far. Anyway, I pass some linux command's result to a variable like this: name: get uptime ansible.builtin.shell: uptime -p register: uptimevar When all servers are up, this works fine. But when some servers are unreachable, Ansible playbook didn't return what I need. I'd like Ansible assign something like 'Unreachable' to uptimevar when server is unreacheable. How can I do it? Thanks! submitted by /u/HumbleFail4017 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Apologies if I should've directed this question for homebrew, mac or similar, but I have been struggling getting ansible to work on my Mac laptop and I am kind of at a loss for what to do. Also I'm still, maybe obviously, on the novice side of ansible, however, I've always been able to do this much when running the same setup from any Linux machine I've tried. I'm trying to connect to a switch using ansible, but I always get a an error saying "msg": "Failed to authenticate: Authentication failed: transport shut down or saw EOF" However, I am 100% certain I'm typing the correct password, even ..read more

Good day everyone, I think I'm having a silly issue trying to assing a variable value to a vars_files, take a look please: name: test hosts: all become: true vars: pak: "{{ ansible_facts['os_family'] }}" vars_files: "apache_default.yml" "apache_{{ pak }}.yml" when running the playbook I get the error: apache_{{ pak }}.yml was not found because the file I want to be found is apache_RedHat.yml, but the variable value is not being assigned to the file name.
