Yes. If I give the arguments as below, then it would be normal variables or
global variables.
ansible-playbook -i hosts xxxx.yaml --extra-vars
'{"management_interface":{"int": "em0","ip": "192.168.56.3"}}'
But I'm looking for an option in ansible-playbook where we could pass the
host variables specific to the particular host as follows.
ansible-playbook -i hosts xxxx.yaml --extra-vars
'{"hostvars['host1']":{"management_interface":{"int": "em0","ip":
"192.168.56.3"}}}'
The content in hosts file is as below:
[vdc1-host1]
host1
[vdc1-host2]
host2
[vdc1:children]
vdc1-host1
vdc1-host2
[sites:children]
vdc1
[all:children]
sites
Please let me know if you have any queries.
