I am curious to know what your hosts file and group_vars\tag_type_iisserver.yml look like. I am trying to add dynamic hosts to my static windows group in /etc/ansible/hosts using the following syntax [tag_name_xzy]
[windows:children] tag_name_xyz as shown in the documentation and the result is : "No hosts matched" even though ec2.py does return a few hosts under the section [tag_name_xyz]. It's driving me crazy. Any help is appreciated.
