I have a role whose main.yml file includes several *.yml files, e.g., main.yml --- - include: tasks1.yml - include: tasks2.yml tasks1.yml --- - name: Create dir file; path=/tmp/dir1 state=dir - name: Create file from template template: src=my_script.sh.j2 dest=/tmp/dir1/my_script.sh

The fact that a (more particular) role that includes another (more generic) role can not call the handlers of the more generic role really sucks in ansible. Example of a roles structure roles/ ansible_galaxy_apache_role/ handlers/main.yml <--- has restart apache handler

I think I know what you're after. Try this. Have two files in ../roles/vms/vars, namely, *../roles/vms/vars/vmname81.yml* --- windows_vms: - Client1 - Client2 - Client3 ...and ... *../roles/vms/vars/vmnames10.yml* --- windows_vms: - Client4 - Client5 Then your role will be this.
