I wish to obtain the value of "f_APP" variable of Play 2 into Play 3.
Below is my playbook which case be used as a testcase:
- name: "Play 1"
hosts: localhost
tasks:
- add_host: name={{ item }}
groups=dest_nodes
ansible_user={{ USER }}
with_items: "{{ Dest_IP.split(',') }}"
- name: "Play 2"
hosts: dest_nodes
user: "{{ USER }}"
tasks:
- set_fact:
f_APP: "Yellow"
- name: "Play 3"
hosts: localhost
user: "{{ USER }}"
vars:
dbfiledet: "{{ hostvars['dest_nodes']['f_APP'] }}"
tasks:
- debug: msg="{{ dbfiledet.stdout }}"
I get the below error for my attempt:
playbook RUN command:
ansible-playbook variabletest.yml -e "USER=user1
Dest_IP=10.17.44.26,10.17.54.26"
[WARNING]: provided hosts list is empty, only localhost is available. Note
that the implicit localhost does not match 'all'
