The following tricks are available:
---
- hosts: all
vars:
x: 1
y: 2
alpha: x > 2
beta: y > 3
tasks:
- shell: echo hi 1
when: alpha
- shell: echo hi 2
when:
- alpha
- beta
Note that 'when: "alpha and beta"' is ambigious to the system, and won't do
what you want, because it has a hard time understanding whether a variable
is a variable expression or a string or not.
