Hi all,
The ansible docs, here
<http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_variables.html#variables-defined-in-a-playbook>,
claim that you can assign a variable to a host inline in a playbook. Then,
here
<http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_conditionals.html#applying-when-to-roles-and-includes>,
it says you can use "when" paired with a variable to run certain roles on
certain hosts. Why then, does this not work?
---
- hosts: "{{ log_srv }}"
vars:
type: syslog
roles:
- syslog-server
- hosts: all
roles:
- { role: syslog-client, when type == "syslog" }
The first play runs fine, only on the server/s defined in the "log_srv"
flag. But the second play runs on all servers, instead of just on the one/s
from the first play. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.
