app1 app2 and app3 are groups, not hosts, you have a single host in all 4 groups, 10.0.0.1 and only one ansible_user/ansible_connection value (since they are squashed to the single host)
What you probably want is the following: [Environment] app1 ansbile_host=10.0.01 ansible_user=user1 ... app2 ansible_host=10.0.0.1 ... Inventory hostname is the unique identifier, the above creates app1 and app2 as 'aliases' of the same 'real host' (10.0;0.1) Since they are unique the variables won't be merged. -- ---------- Brian Coca -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
