The when: clause affects task execution, while register: puts into a variable the status and output of a task.
So 'skipped' is a 'valid status of a task', which is what then is put into the registered variable, this way subsequent tasks can do this: when: registeredvar is skipped to execute another task when previous one is skipped (or not + other conditions). ---------- Brian Coca -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
