Test playbook: the 'when' conditions on the sysctl tasks are how I
figured were proper to format the tests and avoid using jinja2
templating (and avoid subsequent warning from doing so):
---
- hosts: molodetz
become: yes
vars:
sysctl_limit_semmns: kern.seminfo.semmns
sysctl_limit_semmni: kern.seminfo.semmni
postgres_limit_semmni: 60
postgres_limit_semmns: 1024
tasks:
- name: check sysv semaphore system limits
command: sysctl -n {{ sysctl_limit_semmni |quote }} {{
sysctl_limit_semmns |quote }}
register: sem_limits
changed_when: False
- set_fact:
semmni_cur_limit: '{{ sem_limits.stdout_lines[0]|int }}'
semmns_cur_limit: '{{ sem_limits.stdout_lines[1]|int }}'
changed_when: False
- debug:
var: '{{ item }}'
loop:
- semmni_cur_limit
- semmns_cur_limit
- postgres_limit_semmni
- postgres_limit_semmns
- 'postgres_limit_semmni > {{ semmni_cur_limit }}'
- 'postgres_limit_semmns > {{ semmns_cur_limit }}'
- 'postgres_limit_semmni > 100000'
- 'postgres_limit_semmns > 100000'
- name: set sysv max semaphore identifier system limit
sysctl:
name: '{{ sysctl_limit_semmni }}'
value: '{{ postgres_limit_semmni }}'
sysctl_set: yes
when: postgres_limit_semmni > semmni_cur_limit
- name: set sysv max semaphore count system limit
sysctl:
name: '{{ sysctl_limit_semmns }}'
value: '{{ postgres_limit_semmns }}'
sysctl_set: yes
when: postgres_limit_semmns > semmns_cur_limit
This playbook results in the tasks being skipped because of evaluating
to false. The debug task shows the tests evaluating to true when using
jinja2 templating on the compared variable.

Here's how the second test playbook is modified to use templating
delimiters in the conditional:

With jinja2 templating delimiters the comparison evaluates to true and
executes the tasks, but results in the warning. Is there a different
way to structure the conditional properly?
Also would like to understand why do these set_facts still result in
the values being strings instead of integers?
