Hi. I'm encountering a problem in my deployments which may or may not be a bug.
In my inventories directory, I have the following files -- inventories/prod/group_vars/a_server inventories/prod/group_vars/b_server inventories/prod/group_vars/c_server Where a_server, b_server and c_server groups are defined in inventories/prod/hosts All three group_vars files have a variable called "databaseURL" but with different values. When I specify the a_server as the target for my playbook run, it uses the "databaseURL" value defined in c_server when processing j2 templates. So it looks like Ansible loads all 3 group_vars files even if I had specified target=a_server. It looks like c_server is the last processed file (assuming it's done alphabetically) so the value of "databaseURL" there takes precedence over the value of the same variable in a_server. Is this behavior as designed? That all the content of group_vars is loaded even when you have chosen (by specifying the target) which group_vars file should be used?
