is it possible to run playbooks in an "offline" mode where setup wouldn't make any remote requests, leaving out any facts that require it?
we sometimes have limited internet connectivity and playbooks that are only doing local work will hang on setup. running with `gather_facts = false` allows the playbook to execute, but then conditionals that check `ansible_distribution` fail, even though we can't need internet access to figure that out. i've read about `gather_subset` at configuration <http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/intro_configuration.html> and setup <http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/setup_module.html>... maybe that's what `!network` does? it's not clear from the documentation (just says "gather network facts" as far as i can find). thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
