Hi kai,
Thanks for the inputs.
"for security reasons". - I mean that we have disabled gather_facts for
better performance. And we want other users to play the playbook with
access to the same inventory .
I am looking for a way to avoid them running "ansible-playbook pb.yml -e
myvar=all" and to always use "myvar=hostname."
is there a way to stop a particular user to stop using " myvar=all" based
on inventory or other modes?
