So I just want to state that I'm new to Ansible and not sure how to debug
issues yet, any guidance would be appreciated.
I'm attempting to use module blockinfile to update /etc/sysctl.conf file,
but it doesn't seem to want to cooperate.
*playbook:*
settings.yml
1 ---
2 - hosts: dbservers
3 become: yes
4
5 tasks:
6 - name: insert/update sysctl.conf settings per specifications
7 blockinfile:
8 backup: yes
9 dest: /etc/sysctl.conf
10 marker: # {mark} ANSIBLE MANAGED BLOCK
11 content: |
12 kernel.shmmni = 4096
13 kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
14 fs.file-max = 512 * PROCESSES
15 net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 6500
16 net.core.rmem_default = 4194304
17 net.core.rmem_max = 4194304
18 net.core.wmem_default = 262144
19 net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 262144 262144 262144
20 net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4194304 4194304 4194304
*execution:*
$ ansible-playbook ./playbooks/settings.yml
*results:*
PLAY [dbservers]

Again, any help or pointers would be appreciated!
Thanks,
