hi, I adapted the configuration to your proposal, however it doesn't work First all tasks were execetuted on host cmp an then all tasks were again exectuted on the the other machine except cmp.
Regarding to your solution would be necessary to tag both tasks roles/nfs/tasks/nfs_server.yml --- - name: tasks to configure nfs servers some_tasks: ... roles/nfs/tasks/nfs_client.yml --- - name: tasks to configure nfs clients some_tasks: ... maybe as a block, so that there's i reference to those tags in the main.yml. I don't want to call both roles seperately - I'd like to have a playbook where both tasks setting up the nfs-server and clients are done once automatically. Is generally the main idea of ansible roles regarding to my problem creating two roles, server and client because of different hosts or is my approach having one role for both server and client the ideal one?
