Using ansible 2.0.2.0, I want to deploy a file to destination server. The destination folder is different on Debian and RedHat family.

I have used set_fact, but it seems that it used the last defined, ignoring the when: option.

I don't want to use variable files, because this variable is only used in this particular playbook

Duplicating the copy task into RedHat and Debian, while possible, will complicate maintenance in the future.

The playbook below will fail when executed against Ubuntu server because destination was expanded to become /etc/nrpe.d which is for RedHat

- set_fact:
  destination: "/etc/nagios/nrpe.d/"
  when: ansible_os_family == "Debian"

- set_fact:
  destination: "/etc/nrpe.d/"
  when: ansible_os_family == "RedHat"

- name: Ensure Nagios custom checks directory exists
  file: path=/usr/local/lib/nagios/plugins state=directory mode=0755

- name: Install check_cpu_steal
  copy: src=eprepo/sysadmin/nagios_checks/check_cpu_steal dest=/usr/local/lib/nagios/plugins/check_cpu_steal mode=0755 owner=root group=root

- name: Install check_cpu_steal command to /etc/nrpe.d
  copy: src=eprepo/sysadmin/files/check_cpu_steal.conf dest="{{ destination }}/check_cpu_steal.conf mode=0644 owner=root group=root"
ubuntu redhat ansible

I know to check the Galera cluster status, the command that should be used after login to the mysql client is:

SHOW STATUS LIKE 'wsrep%';

but, how to get the output directly from the command line?

The command below result in error:

[root@mariadb01 ~]# mysql -u root -p "SHOW STATUS LIKE 'wsrep%';"
Enter password:
ERROR 1049 (42000): Unknown database 'SHOW STATUS LIKE 'wsrep%';'

I plan to create a simple monitoring using cron and bash, thus the requirement to get the output using command line

mysql

I have previously installed backuppc 3.1.0 from centos 5 testing. The package is now not maintaned by centos anymore.

EPEL have BackupPC version 3.3.0, but yum check-update did not suggest that this package is a replacement for the backuppc package by centos

How do I transition the backuppc centos to BackupPC EPEL?

I'm not planning to perform re-installation, as this machine have a lot of configuration done to arrive at its condition now.

Any idea?

Thanks
