I have ansible 1.9.4
Trying to understand the use of --start-at-task flag. I can start at a task
by using something like "start the Cassandra instance" or if its in a role
can use a | to separate the role from the task name "cassandra | start the
Cassandra instance". However I have several plays in my playbook and each
of those plays are actually running the same role with a few different
variables or hosts groups to setup different instances of the same
application. For example when I run list-tasks:
...
play #6 (Install Cassandra App1): TAGS: []
create Cassandra Directories TAGS: []
copy and unzip DataStax TAGS: []
configure cassandra config file TAGS: []
configure cassandra-env file TAGS: []
configure the cassandra site and rac config file for this node
TAGS: []
delete the existing symlink (if exists) TAGS: []
create the symlink TAGS: []
start the Cassandra instance TAGS: []
status of the Cassandra instance TAGS: []
show Cassandra status TAGS: []
play #7 (Install Cassandra App2): TAGS: []
create Cassandra Directories TAGS: []
copy and unzip DataStax TAGS: []
configure cassandra config file TAGS: []
configure cassandra-env file TAGS: []
configure the cassandra site and rac config file for this node
TAGS: []
delete the existing symlink (if exists) TAGS: []
create the symlink TAGS: []
start the Cassandra instance TAGS: []
status of the Cassandra instance TAGS: []
show Cassandra status TAGS: []
...
If there were to be a failure during play#7 say 'start the Cassandra
instance' failed and I went and fixed the issue and wanted to restart from
that point, is that possible?
does the --start-at-task accept the format delivered by the --show-tasks
option, for example:
--start-at-task "Install Cassandra App2 | start the Cassandra
instance" or
--start-at-task "play #7 | start the Cassandra instance" or
--start-at-task "play #7 (Install Cassandra App2) | start the
Cassandra instance"
Thank you
