I'm getting the weirdest error. After running config management to install elasticsearch on an instance, when I do sudo service elasticsearch start I get a Broken pipe error and ssh cuts out. Then after less than a minute I can ssh into the machine again, but elasticsearch isn't running. I try it again and same thing.
There's nothing in the elasticsearch logs, and I'm just at a loss of what to do.
So in my code I have a task
- name: cool task
shell: 'touch iamnotcool.txt'
when: me.cool is not defined
and my vars looks like
---
me:
stumped: yes
So when I run the task it comes back with the following error
{"failed": true, "msg": "The conditional check 'me.cool' failed. The error was: error while evaluating conditional (me.cool): 'dict object' has no attribute 'cool'.
So I just started a new company, and while familiarizing myself with the ansible repository, I was wondering if there's any way to see the variables that come from group_vars, host_vars and all that together in one place, it's non-trivial to gather all the facts about a host. For example if I have a hosts file like
[foo:children]
bar
[bar]
baz
and so I have two group_vars files foo.yml
---
app: kyle
and bar.yml
---
env: prod
and then I have a host_vars file baz.yml
---
type: app-server
is there any way to get an out put like the following:
Host: baz
app = kyle
env = prod
type = app-server
I've looked into the setup module, but when I run the equivalent of ansible all -m setup it returns all of the ansible_* variables but none of my defined variables.
