Ah, thank you very much, this indeed allowed me to shut down all
instances in an environment (code pasted below if anyone ever needs to
google this). Unfortunately, shutdown didn't work because ec2.py doesn't
seem to list stopped instances (even after --refresh-cache).
Thank you both.
-------------------------------- sample below
---
- hosts: localhost
gather_facts: false
connection: local
tasks:
- name: Stop the instances for pod '{{pod}}'
local_action:
module: ec2
instance_ids: "{{hostvars[item]['ec2_id']}}"
state: stopped
region: 'us-west-1'
wait: false
with_items: "groups.tag_env_{{pod}}"
--------------------------------- sample end
