Hi,
I have a playbook containing several Plays and each Play is executed on a
bunch of hosts.
I would like to quit the whole playbook (not only the current play) for a
particular host if a "when: condition" is met.
Example Playbook with 2 Plays:
- name: Play for patching precheck and download updates
hosts: patchgroup
remote_user: ansible
gather_facts: true
become: true
timeout: 300
roles:
- patching_precheck_download
- name: Play for setting Icinga downtime
hosts: patchgroup
remote_user: ansible
gather_facts: true
roles:
- role: icinga_downtime
vars:
host_and_services: true
In the role patching_precheck_download there is the following task
- block:
- name: Red Hat | Quit playbook when no updates are found
fail:
msg: "Quit playbook for the current host since no updates are
found."
#- meta: end_host
when: updates.stdout_lines | length == 0
If the when condition is met, I currently use "fail" which will end for the
particular host, both the current play and the playbook. This is intended,
but it will throw an error which should not be the case.
The other alternative I found is "meta: end_host" this will not throw an
error and end the play for the current host, but not for the whole Playbook
(2nd Play will still be executed for this particular host). So, this is no
solution.
Any ideas how to quit a Play and Playbook without throwing an error ?
Many thanks
Rainer
