Thanks, Tomas ... yes .... and no ... ;-) I wonder if I could also: cp defaults/main.yml to group_vars/site_[AB].yml ... adjust the configs to the sites and then use something like: # playbook 1 - hosts: site_A roles: - dhcpd # playbook 2 - hosts: site_B roles: - dhcpd .... would the group_vars override the vars defined in defaults/main.yml ? I *think* so ... I will try that ... Stefan
