I have, and and still are, struggling with this as well. Our inventory is very similar to yours. We have three AWS environments, and dozens of other on-prem environments. For the AWS we need to share a bunch of variables. Putting those in playbook group_vars does not work because the are only for AWS, not the other environments.
Hence I have resorted to soft-linking an aws-common.yml into each of the aws group_vars. Since git handles the links its really no pain, just a bit of confusion when searching. I do a similar thing in the playbooks for other reasons. But now reading below the under playbooks ansible will look up the tree for group_vars I may not need those. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
