I need to stop and then start a python script on numerous remote servers. I
set up a vm in our test environment to walk through this. The 'remote
server' has a simple python script (test.py) in /test directory:
#!/usr/bin/env python
while True:
print "running\n"
my playbook has a hosts file:
[servers]
192.168.2.31
which is the IP of the 'remote host' in the test environment.
I have tried the playbook several ways, using shell, script and command to
execute test.py, shell and script didn't work, command did but then the
playbook hangs:
---
- name: test stop and start test.py
hosts: servers
tasks:
- name: kill pyscript
shell: pkill -f test.py
- name: start script
command: python /test/test/py
This works, sort of but not really :-) test.py gets killed, sure enough,
and "start script" in the playbook executes, but then ansible just sits
there, Ho-Ho-Ho-ing me.
TASK: [start script] *****************************************
For oooh long time until I give up and Control-C it.
It is executing though, because when I go to the 'remote server' test.py is
indeed running.
What the heck am I missing????
