Hi All,
I'm new to Ansible and take over an existing Ansible setup from my
co-worker.
Now the playbook worked on his configuration but now I made a modification
with a new host and I receive an error message which doesn't makes a whole
lot of sense for me.
Ansible Version: 2.4.2.0-2.el7
Ansible OS: CentOS 7.5.1804
Receiving Server: CentOS 7.4.1708
ok: [server1.infra.sys] => (item={u'ipaddr': u'1.1.1.2', u'netmask':
u'255.255.255.0', u'bootproto': u'none', u'device': u'ens192', u'type':
u'Ethernet', u'gateway': u'1.1.1.250'}) => {"changed": false, "checksum":
"fdecaa26f260854783e24a79c166604488713c90", "gid": 0, "group": "root",
"item": {"bootproto": "none", "device": "ens192", "gateway": "1.1.1.250",
"ipaddr": "1.1.1.2", "netmask": "255.255.255.0", "type": "Ethernet"},
"mode": "0644", "owner": "root", "path":
"/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens192", "secontext":
"system_u:object_r:net_conf_t:s0", "size": 229, "state": "file", "uid": 0}
fatal: [server1.infra.sys]: FAILED! => {"msg": "The task includes an option
with an undefined variable. The error was: 'dict object' has no attribute
'device'\n\nThe error appears to have been in
'/opt/ansible/playbooks/roles/basic/tasks/main.yml': line 36, column 3, but
may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe
offending line appears to be:\n\n\n- name: Update primary interface IP
information\n ^ here\n\nexception type: <class
'ansible.errors.AnsibleUndefinedVariable'>\nexception: 'dict object' has no
attribute 'device'"}
The NIC got configured on the Server. the ifcfg-ens192 file looks like this
now:
cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens192
#######
# Managed via Ansible
#######
NAME=ens192
TYPE=Ethernet
DEVICE=ens192
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
NM_CONTROLLED=no
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6INIT=no
IPADDR=1.1.1.2
PREFIX=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=1.1.1.250
This is what I have written in to the host file in the inventory
directory/./host_vars/server1.infra.sys:
# HOST INTERFACES DEFINITIONS
interfaces:
- device: ens192
type: Ethernet
bootproto: none
ipaddr: 1.1.1.2
netmask: 255.255.255.0
gateway: 1.1.1.250
As seen, there is device configured and in the error msg from Ansible it
isn't happy because the variable 'device' isn't set.
This is a part of /opt/ansible/playbooks/roles/basic/tasks/main.yml
- name: Update primary interface IP information
template:
src: roles/basic/templates/ifcfg.j2
dest: "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-{{item.device}}"
owner: root
group: root
mode: 0644
with_items: "{{ interfaces }}"
when: interfaces is defined
notify: restart network
So why should I get an error from Ansible when the changes have been made
successfully?
I'm already very thankful for the time and help with my issue.
