[ansible-project] Re: vsphere wait for vm powered off
Hi, thank you, your suggestion works.
I am wondering are this options documented some where? or how can I list
this option for a module?
Ansible documentation is not covering all this options or I haven't been
able to find it.
here is a working code
- name: Wait till {{ target }} is powered off
vsphere_guest:
vcenter_hostname="{{ vcenter_server }}"
username=ansible@local.domain
password="{{ vc_passwd }}"
guest="{{ ansible_hostname }}"
validate_certs=False
vmware_guest_facts=yes
register: vm_state
until: vm_state.ansible_facts.hw_power_status == 'POWERED OFF'
retries: 10
delay: 5
delegate_to: localhost
Best regards

[ansible-project] Re: vsphere wait for vm powered off
Hi, I am trying to use this code to check VM power state and its failing
for me with this error..
"msg": "The conditional check 'result.hw_power_status == \"POWERED OFF\"'
failed. The error was: error while evaluating conditional
(result.hw_power_status == \"POWERED OFF\"): 'dict object' has no attribute
'hw_power_status'"
My playbook..
Enter code here... - name: Wait till {{ target }} is powered off
vsphere_guest:
vcenter_hostname="{{ vcenter_server }}"
username=ansible@mbu.local
password="{{ vc_passwd }}"
guest=mbu-zabbix-ccp
validate_certs=False
vmware_guest_facts=yes
register: result
until: result.hw_power_status == "POWERED OFF"
retries: 10
delay: 5
i tried with
result.hw_power_status == "POWERED OFF"
and
result.ansible_facts.hw_power_status == "POWERED OFF"
both fail with a same error..

[ansible-project] Add new user and add to existing group
Hi,
Can some one help me with my playbook for adding new user and adding that
user to existing groups...
Playbook
- hosts: "{{ target }}"
become: yes
become_user: root
become_method: sudo
gather_facts: no
tasks:
- name: User add "{{ user }}"
user: name="{{ user }}" comment="{{ comment }}" uid="{{ uid }}"
groups="{{ groups }}"
notify:
- Chage added user
handlers:
- name: Chage added user
shell: chage -M 9 "{{ user }}"
My command...
ansible-playbook user_add_and_to_group.yaml -K -e
"target=egcp-tst-rde.mbu.local user=test1 comment=testuser uid=9990
groups=sysadm"
I am getting this error...
"msg": "argument groups is of type and we were unable to
convert to list: cannot be converted to a list"
If I use the play book without groups parameter playbook is successful if I
manually define groups directly in the playbook its successful but it fails
if I use it with variables and I do not understand why
Regards
