THank you, my issue is the following: *the variables are host/user specific*, so I am trying to find a way to set them in an easy way as t*hey will pilote the playbook execution*. (if the parameter is tomcat then the tomcat role will be played etc ...) So using a group_var is not easy to manage, I was thinking about setting vars in the hosts in a tab, this way: [linuxserver] server1 ansible_user=aa01 vartab="1;tomcat;release1"
and then in the playbook getting the variables using the vartab[1] ... I am new in ansible, I don't know if this is possible.
