I have a custom hostvar called server_dependson defined in my inventory. The thinking is that each server will have a server it is dependent on. Therefore when running updates and rebooting (Windows servers) I want to be able to specify that certain servers be updated and rebooted based on dependency.
My initial thought was to have a nested loop, outer loop with inventory_hostname and inner with server_dependson. Within the loop it would compare the server_dependson with the current inventory_hostname from the outer loop. If it matched then it would add the inventory_hostname to a list after the server it depended on. This way at the end of the loops I would have a sorted list of servers to feed to tasks in the list's order. Any ideas about how to achieve this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
