We have a playbook that restores some data from a backup to a host, and
afterwards we want to run another playbook that fixes up some things in
the backup, but that other playbook is more general, and does a whole
bunch of tasks, and affects all the hosts of this type. We'd rather only
run the tasks that we know we need to run (which are identified by a tag),
and only run them on the host they need to run on. Something like
- include: hosttype.yml
limit: "{{ restorehost }}"
tags: mytags
That actual code doesn't actually work, obviously.
Is there a way to do this within Ansible?
(We can do it by hand, obviously, but the restore playbook takes a long
time, and someone has to then remember to come along and run hosttype.yml
one when the restore is done. We could create a two-line shell script that
run both playbooks, but it'd be cool to just be able to do this with an
include.)
