Background:
I have three different environments: test, staging, and prod and 3
applications that I deploy to them.
In staging and prod, each application have a dedicated server. In test,
they all will be deployed to the same box.
The test inventory looks like this:
.
├── group_vars
│ ├── accounting.yml
│ ├── all.yml
│ ├── payroll.yml
│ └── timesheets.yml
└── hosts
The contents of these files are shown here:
*hosts*
[timesheets]
test.vagrant.local
[payroll]
test.vagrant.local
[accounting]
test.vagrant.local
*all.yml*
---
sensu_checks_uninstall:
- basename: check-legacy-process
*accounting.yml*
---
sensu_checks_install:
- name: check-accounting-process
command: "/etc/sensu/plugins/community/check-procs.rb -c 1 -p
java.*accounting"
*payroll.yml*
---
sensu_checks_install:
- name: check-payroll-process
command: "/etc/sensu/plugins/community/check-procs.rb -c 1 -p
java.*payroll"
*timesheets.yml*
---
sensu_checks_install:
- name: check-timesheets-process
command: "/etc/sensu/plugins/community/check-procs.rb -c 1 -p
java.*timesheets"
The *sensu-check-role* creates a file named *"{{ name }}.json"* for each
item in the *sensu_checks_install* array.
The playbook looks like this:
---
- hosts: timesheets
remote_user: vagrant
sudo: True
gather_facts: True
roles:
- sensu-check-role
- hosts: accounting
remote_user: vagrant
sudo: True
gather_facts: True
roles:
- sensu-check-role
- hosts: payroll
remote_user: vagrant
sudo: True
gather_facts: True
roles:
- sensu-check-role
I was expecting the playbook to create three files:
- check-accounting-process.json
- check-payroll-process.json
- check-timesheets-process.json
But all the plays resolve the same *sensu_checks_install* variable and
hence overwrite each others generated files and in the end only one file
gets created:
↪ ansible-playbook -i inv/test/hosts playbook.yml --private-key

Why is Ansible behaving this way? What am I doing wrong here?
Thanks in advance,
