Re: [ansible-project] Re: Adding new route to cisco router Jinja2 template

[Rodrigo]

Hello All,

I believe you can use this example to add more routes.

- name: load new acl into device
  ios_config:
lines:
  - 10 permit ip host 1.1.1.1 any log
  - 20 permit ip host 2.2.2.2 any log
  - 30 permit ip host 3.3.3.3 any log
  - 40 permit ip host 4.4.4.4 any log
  - 50 permit ip host 5.5.5.5 any log
parents: ip access-list extended test
before: no ip access-list extended test
match: exact

Kind Regards,

Rodrigo

[ansible-project] Re: Plays taking way to long to run...

[Willard Dennis]

Tested my role on an Ubuntu host running Ansible 2.3.0.0, same problem... 
So it wasn't just my Macbook.

On a hunch, edited /etc/ssh/sshd_config on the target system, put in 
"UseDNS no", and restarted sshd - reran on my Macbook, problem solved!

Thus confirming the age-old sysadmin haiku truth:

It's not DNS
There's no way it is DNS
It was DNS

Re: [ansible-project] Re: Is there any better way to find if a list of packes installed

[Kiran Kumar]

I just figured it out. If a package is not installed it would return fail 
and if all packages are installed it would return pass

  vars:
pkg: '0'
  tasks:
  - name: Check if packages are installed
command: rpm -q {{ item }}
with_items:
   - kernel
   - perf
register: rpm_check
failed_when: rpm_check.rc > 1

  - set_fact: pkg=1
when: item.rc == 1
with_items: "{{ rpm_check.results }}"
failed_when: pkg != '1'


  - set_fact: pkg_test=fail
when: pkg == '1'

  - set_fact: pkg_test=pass
when: pkg == '0'
  - debug: var=pkg_test

[ansible-project] Re: Adding new route to cisco router Jinja2 template

[naeem dhby]

Thanks Cody for your reply

so you mean i can create my jinja2 template for routing and just use 
ios_config with src parameter to merge my template to my router? is that 
will create new line to my configuration, i know "before" and "after" 
parameters exist in ios_config but can i use that parameters with in src 
parameter and template file?
For example i have 3 static route already in my router, can i add only 2 
more route to router with ios_config by using jinja2 template without 
changing other configs or reuse old config file?

Thanks again.

Any reason not to use ios_config module along with the src parameter

[ansible-project] Tower and "Check Mode"?

[Cody John]

Is there any way to run playbooks in Tower using the "--check" flag?   This 
is a pretty critical feature and I'm surprised that it either doesn't exist 
or I am just missing it (entirely possible).

 I stick to using single backslashes (and not quotes) in YAML, or single 
 quotes if you have to. And single quotes everywhere else. I never had 
 the 
 need to use double-backslashes. 

 I remember one issues (with YAML?), which 

[ansible-project] Re: Ansible support for Windows Server 2016

[Trond Hindenes]

Timothy, I'm not quite getting what you're trying to accomplish. Let's just 
get terminology out of the way first:
1. An ansible environment consists of a control node, and on or multiple 
target nodes. The control node is where you "run ansible", and it reaches 
out to the target nodes (for target nodes running Windows, this typically 
happens using WinRM)
2. Ansible supports windows-based target nodes, but not control nodes. You 
still need a Linux node as a control node, although many are using WSL for 
dev/test.
3. WSL is currently _not_ available on Windows 2016, only Windows 10. 
Microsoft has announced plans for WSL on Server tho, but it's kinda not 
that relevant in this context (imho).
4. As far as support for Windows 2016 goes, it should be fully supported as 
an Ansible target node

If you could explain a bit more I'm sure theres a bunch of people here who 
are ready to help

-Trond

[ansible-project] using eval in debugger

[horos22]

all, 

we are using the ansible debugger and running into some issues - 

basically, we are hitting a place where a string is being eval'ed to get 
another string, ie:

var: "{{ another_var | user_filter | user_filter2 }}"

and it is dying because user_filter is hitting an error on 'another_var' as 
input.

therefore, we'd like to see what's going on with user_filter here, and 
would like to reproduce with eval'ing the relevant string.

for example, we can do:

(debug) p "{{ another_var | user_filter | user_filter2 }}"

but that doesn't run user_filter or user_filter2.

so - how can you get the debugger to eval any given ansible statement?

thanks much for any info..

Re: [ansible-project] Using modules offline

[Brian Coca]

Not sure what you are asking, modules are normally shipped with
Ansible,  you can use your own custom ones with library/ dir adjacent
to play or in role. Any method of copying the module should work,
Ansible only cares that it is there.

[ansible-project] Ansible support for Windows Server 2016

[Jordan Borean]

Hey

At home and for dev work I use Windows 10 and WSL to run Ansible and that works 
pretty well for me. While this works this method is not supported by Ansible at 
all and if you come across issues you will usually be asked to replicate it on 
and actual unix box.

The other issue with this is WSL,  only works on Windows 10/Server 2016 and 
newer. This is also only supported by Microsoft for development purposes and is 
not designed to run in a production setting. So if you really want to run 
Ansible on Windows your 2 choices are to use WSL for newer OS' or use Cygwin. 
Both do work but your probably setting yourself up for failure if this is for 
non development work.

For getting Ansible to talk to a Windows box and executing commands you can do 
this with Server 2008/Vista onwards as long as some of the earlier versions 
have powershell 3.0 installed. There are scripts to upgrade powershell 
available if you have an older version. Ansible uses the WinRM protocol to 
communicate to the Windows box over HTTP/S which is definitely usable but a bit 
slower than SSH and at copying files between hosts.

Hopefully this answers your questions.

This is not a playbook, it's two tasks.

I highly recommend reading the documentation to get a basic knowledge of

A great place to start is this one.

Re: [ansible-project] issue in counting no. of host in inventory ?

[Gurminder Singh]

Thank You Kai,

I corrected that and made some more changes to my playbook which eventually 
worked. We can also use 

debug:
   msg: "Host count: {{ ansible_play_hosts | length }}"

- _ansible_play_hosts_ is an Ansible-defined variable which is a list of 
the hosts in the current play, i.e. what the above pattern matches

- **run_once** ensures we don't run the debug command for every single host 
in the list, which would be a big waste of time


---
- name: Host Count In Inventory
  hosts: ios
  gather_facts: no
  connection: local

  tasks:

- name: Host Count
  run_once: true
  debug:
 msg: "Host Count: {{ groups['ios'] | length }}"

This does work I have confirmed it. 
I really do want to thank Kai for all his help on this I really owe you one 
sir.. 
I will update this later with the final playbook we are trying to patch our

i've installed ansible via yum:

[ansible-project] import branch on ansible-galaxy

[Marco Tangaro]

Dear experts,
I'm trying to import my ansible-role on github: 
https://github.com/mtangaro/ansible-galaxy-tools
It is a fork and for this reason I don't want modify the master branch, 
therefore I've added new branches.
I'd like to import on ansible-galaxy the handler-include-static-no

[ansible-project] how to pass a file into AnsibleModule as argument

[Bruce Lok]

I know the basic to pass a some string to an Ansible Module as argument, 
but curious how to pass a file

for example:
I have a file containing some variable in yaml format (eg: 
/var/www/project/var.yaml)

def main():
module = AnsibleModule(
argument_spec = dict(user = dict(default='me'),
 pass = dict(required=True),
 ip = dict(required=True),
 var1 = dict(required=True),
 filename = dict(required=True),
 ))

the argument 'filename' is expected to be a file, I want to pass the 
var.yaml into the ansible module which will read it
Thank you so much

[ansible-project] Ansible only completing first task in playbook

[JK]

So Initially I thought that I had a rogue playbook but now I am finding 
that Ansible is only executing the first task in any playbook. For role 
below only first task is completed but no errors are given even with -v -vv 
or -vvv. --list-tasks lists all tasks and if I comment first task out then 
second one runs fine. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Ansible 
and verified /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg. No joy I am on CentOS 
7.3 ansible-2.3.0.0-3.el7.noarch


  - name: ensure file exists
file:
  path: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
  state: touch
  mode: 0755
  
  - name: ensure blacklist line is in file
lineinfile:
  path: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

[ansible-project] Dependency check between roles

[Jose Luis Fernández Pérez]

Hi all!

I need to disallow a role from being executed when it is include more than 
once. The scenario is like this.

Role A includes as a dependency Role B
Role C includes as a dependency Role B

I include role A and role C in a playbook

The result is.

B is run
A is run
B is run
C is run

Given that B is already executed I would like it not to be run again.

Any idea? Im currently setting a fact in B and use a conditional include in 
its main.yml file but this is code smell IMHO.

Thanks in advance!

[ansible-project] Ansible for Microsoft update patching

[Vinod Kashyap]

Hi,
I am trying to understand if Ansible can be used for Microsoft update 
patching for windows servers in conjunction with WSUS? and if yes what are 
Pros and Cons of using this tool instead of using some GUI tool like 
BatchPatch where we get auto login,  progress bar for each server being 
patched, and final reporting. Has any one used it and could please share 
experience.

Regards,
Vinod Kashyap

[ansible-project] using modules offline

[Avishay Niv]

hello

we have just started to use Ansible in one of our networks. one of our 
networks is a stand alone network which is not connected to the internet 
and the only way to insert data (files) to this environment is with offline 
copy. i would like to use some modules from the ansible galaxy but i didnt 
find any documented way to use install and use modules offline. 

if needed i can install Ansible on a server in a network that connected to 
the internet and install the modules on that server but i need to know if 
coping the relevant files is enough ?  ehat files to copy and where to put 
them ? do i need to do somethng special to use the modules offline ?

thanks

Avishay

[ansible-project] Looping from a list of definitions and values which is based on group var

[Ilan Harel]

Might be a simple solution that I didn't understand after reading 
http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_loops.html but here is my case:

There is a command that should run different parameters for the same role 
based on group of hosts for example:

webservers group:
/usr/bin/command definition1=value1a
/usr/bin/command definition2=value2a
/usr/bin/command definition3=value3a

dbservers group:
/usr/bin/command definition1=value1b
/usr/bin/command definition2=value2b
/usr/bin/command definition3=value3b
/usr/bin/command definition4=value4b

There will be two var files, webserver.yml and dbservers.yml with the 
following content:
webserver.yml 
definition1,value1a
definition2,value2a
definition3,value3a

dbservers.yml 
definition1,value1b
definition2,value2b
definition3,value3b
definition4,value4b

1. how should I loop through all pairs of definitions and values in var 
files and run the command?
2. where do I add the name definition that it will be displayed when it's 
running?

Thanks in advance

Re: [ansible-project] Re: Issue with vmware_guest_snapshot module

[americanoz]

Hi Kai,

Thank you for taking the time to review and reply. I thought the same thing 
yesterday and ran through every option I could think of. the funny part 
about the module is it states in the documentation that UUID is not 
required but if I run it with out the UUID I get a different result. I will 
run give it another try today.  Not sure if you know much about the VC can 
there be a incompatibility with pyvmomi and the VC we are running 6.0 VC. I 
did check and pyvmomi will go back 4 version so that should be good. Sorry 
running through everything in my head.. 

Thanks again. I will update later today..

It's most likely a wrong combination of datacenter:, name: and uuid:

Is {{ ansible_hostname }} the same name it's called in Vmware? Is the

Vmware is case sensitive, is the case correct in datacenter:, name: and
