Hi

The idea behind using Ansible is that you want to make sure a system
is configured the way you want it.
This works best if you use it to configure more (ideally, all) aspects
of a system.
Basically Ansible (or any other configuration management tool) is
designed to make sure you don't end up in the situation you're in.
That said, it can of course be used to bring existing systems closer
back to what you want, but as you already know hand crafted systems
can contain quite a lot of configuration drift.
You also seem to be looking for some sort of interactivity when
upgrading. What you describe is exactly how upgrades work in the
Debian based distros.

But really you should be looking at spending effort on ansible
playbooks that carefully set up configuration files the way you need
them.
If you do this right, it will cost you less work. Also you should
consider redeploying systems onto a new version of the base OS, rather
than upgrading them. IMHO upgrading an OS introduces a lot of subtle
configuration drift.

Sounds like just the copy module would work.

Yep, you are right.  That is much easier.  I'll go that route.  Out of 
curiosity do you think it is a syntax issue with my hodgepodge of groups 
causing the "unmatched group" error? or a bug?

If you that is the only place you have phy: replace module would be a lot 
easier.

  - replace:
  path: /path/to/file
  regexp: (, )?'phy:[^']+'
  replace: ''

So you have a regexp that isn't working, but haven't told us what you are

[ansible-project] Re: HTTPConnectionpool(host = 'proxyhost' , port = 9480) , read timed out = 30 error on ansible 2.7.0 , remote node = windows server 2008

[Jordan Borean]

Looks like you are trying to connect through a proxy? The winrm connection 
plugin doesn't allow you to explicitly define a proxy in the inventory so 
it would need to be set in the environment variables using the 
http_proxy/http_proxy env vars. You can use the newer psrp connection 
plugin to define a proxy in Ansible like;

[windows]
windows-server

[windows:vars]
ansible_username=username
ansible_pass=pass
ansible_connection=psrp
ansible_psrp_proxy=proxyhost:9480

There are some other variables that you can set like 
'ansible_psrp_cert_validation' but have a look at the docs for more info 
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/plugins/connection/psrp.html.

Thanks

[ansible-project] Re: windows - ansible.. create user and run remaining tasks with the user created

[Jordan Borean]

Using become is what you need, you shouldn't have to worry about creating 
the profile as become will do that for you when it first logs on as that 
user. You just need to make sure you don't manually create that profile 
before becoming that user as Windows will then create the profile at a 
different path.

Your XML file actually has multiple include locations, so you'd have
to loop through them.
Since this is the case, you also need to make sure there are no
additional include locations.
Something like this should do the trick:



  vars:
locations:
  - conf/ldapUserRegistry.xml
  - conf/application.xml

  tasks:
  - name: Ensure locations are configured
xml:
  path: server.xml
  xpath: "/server/include[{{ i + 1 }}]"
  attribute: location
  value: "{{ item }}"
loop: "{{ locations }}"
loop_control:
  index_var: i

  - name: Ensure no other locations are configured
xml:
  path: server.xml
  xpath: "/server/include[position()>{{ (locations | length) }}]"
  state: absent

In my experience this is because of double quotes around regexp and line that 
contains backslash, it is treated as a string and do expand escapes.
You can avoid that by using single quotes instead, but then you need to escape 
the single quotes in you regexp.

What I do is avoid quotes all together, to do that you need to write your 
with_items in another style

  with_items:
- regexp: ^(vif.*'mac=)((\w{2}:){3})((\w{2}:?){3})(.+)'$
  line: \1\2AA:{{ 99 | random(start=10, step=1) }}:{{ 99 | random(start=10, 
step=1) }}\6
  backrefs: yes
- regexp: (^uuid)(?:[=\s']+)'(.*)'.*$
  line: "{{ newid.stdout }}"
  backrefs: no
- regexp: (^name)(?:[=\s']+)'(.*)'.*$
  line: "{{ newid.stdout }}"
  backrefs: no


This should work and the double quotes in the line must be there since { after 
colon in yaml is treated as a dict.

[ansible-project] Question on using Ansible to upgrade Linux with config file overwrites

[EspressoBeanies]

What's the best way to use Ansible to manage software updates where 
installer config files have the potential to overwrite the config settings 
you currently have in place? I'm trying to see if there's a way for Ansible 
to apply software upgrades on all my *NIX machines but notify me when it 
runs into packages that require config file replacements so that I can take 
a look at the changes and see how best to apply my current settings to meet 
the new ones. Curious to see if anyone found an effective workaround to 
this problem.

[ansible-project] Why doesn't Ansible like my regexp?

[John Harmon]

 

As far as I can tell I have all of my quotes... it just doesn't seem to 
like my escaping... Adding verbosity didn't give me any useful information.


  - name: Sanitize vm.cfg step 2 of
  lineinfile:
path: "{{ file }}"
regexp: "{{ item.regexp }}"
line: "{{ item.line }}"
backrefs: "{{ item.backrefs }}"
  with_items:
- { regexp: "^(vif.*'mac=)((\w{2}:){3})((\w{2}:?){3})(.+)'$", line: 
"\1\2AA:{{ 
99 | random(start=10, step=1) }}:{{ 99 | random(start=10, step=1) }}\6": 
backrefs: yes }
- { regexp: "(^uuid)(?:[=\s']+)'(.*)'.*$", line: "{{ newid.stdout 
}}", backrefs: no }
- { regexp: "(^name)(?:[=\s']+)'(.*)'.*$", line: "{{ newid.stdout 
}}", backrefs: no }

Result:
ERROR! Syntax Error while loading YAML.
  found unknown escape character

The error appears to have been in '/etc/ansible/playbooks/one-offs/test.yml'
: line 46, column 37, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.

The offending line appears to be:

  with_items:
- { regexp: "^(vif.*'mac=)((\w{2}:){3})((\w{2}:?){3})(.+)'$", line: 
"\1\2AA:{{ 
99 | random(start=10, step=1) }}:{{ 99 | random(start=10, step=1) }}\6": 
backrefs: yes }
^ here
We could be wrong, but this one looks like it might be an issue with
missing quotes.  Always quote template expression brackets when they
start a value. For instance:

with_items:
  - {{ foo }}

Should be written as:

with_items:
  - "{{ foo }}"

Hi Visar

Correct.
The point I was trying to make is that using string manipulation to
edit an XML configuration file might not be the best way to go about
it.
A regular expression might work - until it doesn't. For instance when
the content is split over lines, uses inconsistent spacing, the regex
eats multiple instances which you didn't want, etc.
The XML module does not "replace lines" , but will operate on the
actual XML elements, which is more robust.

For this to work you need to know the structure of the XML  - can you
supply the server.xml?

Thanks

Dick

It will look up the variable on all host in group mysql

This is the code in the template

  {% for host in groups['mysql']%}
  {{hostvars[host]['ansible_default_ipv4']['address']}}{% if not loop.last 
%},{% endif %}
  {% endfor %}

In the inventory he has
  [mysql]
  mysql01
  mysql02
  mysql03
  mysql04

In the first iteration host = mysql01 so he is running
  {{ hostvars['mysql01']['ansible_default_ipv4']['address'] }}

But since gather fact has not been run this will get you the error undefined 
variable.

Hello Kai,

Thanks a lot for your gudance here. Its really appreciated.

I am very new to ansible and thought like this is a normal task already 
done by experts like you and was eager to get a reply on that.. 

Here i just gone through the xml module and couldnt dfind any information 
to replace lines as we seen in the lineinfile module. Please correct me if 
i missed any..

Sure, but the template will only be used for the one host and as such should

There you have the problem.
He has template code that read variable from all the host in group mysql 
and running the command with limit.
Because of limit the fact gathering will run on mysql04 and not the 
other hosts in the group so the ['ansible_default_ipv4']['address'] will 
be undefined for all of them except mysql04.

Hey Uwe,

I hear you and apologies.  Was trying to keep it from getting too messy

Link to file is
here:  http://microdevsys.com/ansible/ansible-vvv.out.txt.gz

Just the same, in case you can't get to the file, here's the first 100
lines:


TASK [mysql : Print all variables for each remote device]

Why do you think the errors is related to mysql04?

Your template you have this code

  {% for host in groups['mysql']%}
  {{hostvars[host]['ansible_default_ipv4']['address']}}{% if not 
loop.last %},{% endif %}

  {% endfor %}

The host is looping over every host is the group mysql and getting the 
ansible_default_ipv4, so anyone of them could be the culprit.

So you need to check them all, the easiest way to do that would be:

  ansible mysql -m setup -a 'filter=ansible_default_ipv4'

Re: [ansible-project] Re: need to replace a line in config file

[Dick Visser]

Hi

I would not use lineinfile and regular expressions to manipulate XML.
You might get it to work, but it will be very fragile.
Instead have a look at the xml module, which (if you can get it to
work) will be more robust:

Hi experts,

node (prerequisite done)  when I execute its waiting for some time and then 
throwing me this error

plaintext: HTTPConnectionpool(host = 'proxyhost' , port = 9480) , read 
timed out = 30

I dont any clue on what is happening and this goes for all windows machines

Can any one advice me what are the different troubleshoot we can do for 
this error?

Note - I defined all the required inputs for windows machine in inventory 
file like user,password,port,protocol(tried ntlm,basic etc) , connection)
