I have run a playbook that updates an app of ours on numerous customer
VM's. This playbook has run fine many times, but today when I ran it to
update 6 servers, one of my variables was not properly put into the target
files on 4 of the 6 VM's. More specifically, this variable is a four digit

and root on it and is mounted. I did some research, and

I am writing a playbook to set up new VM's remotely, and two of the tasks
require interaction with a utility and an app, and I'm presuming this could
be done in Ansible, but have no idea how, so I'm looking for a pointer to
the appropriate tutorial, or confirmation that Ansible can't do it.
Brilliant, I think that gives me everything I need other than to dive
deeper into selinux contexts, thanks Brian,

Thanks to Brian for the reply, it begs a couple more questions, but first
let me state my 'new understandings' based on some sleuthing I did through
our testenv logs and ansible core modules code while trying to figure this
out. It looks to me like when you first use ansible a .ansible dir is

This is a two part question. I sort of worked around the problem I asked
about yesterday (third task crashes on third of 4 machines) by splitting up
my playbook into 3 parts. Ugly, but for now it works, at least on four
machines at a time, testing bigger inventory now.

no, indeed it worked as I had hoped, and as Roger and Brian spoke of. By
using
[servers]
name ansible_ssh_host=xx.xx.xx.xx
it worked just fine. Ran into some other problems, but that's a different
post

Good day. We're new to Ansible so we might be missing something obvious.
We have a playbook that deploys a splunk forwarder to remote machines:

- name: deploy splunk forwarder to servers
hosts: servers
tasks:
- name: mkdir /home/engineering/TEAM
file: path=/home/engineering/TEAM
New to Ansible here, and have a question on using an inventory_hostname
variable.
I have a playbook that deploys an add-on to numerous servers, using an
inventory list of IP addresses setup as so:
[servers01]
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
[servers02]
zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz
and so on.

How would I provide a username and password for an application?

When the command to run the script is entered, the app asks for a username

I figured it out. -
- user: name=name password=password
- command: do something

Not sure the best way to do this, have read the documentation but still a
wee bit befuddled.
We're ramping up to be able to deploy to several hundred servers. Each
server will have an assigned name. Some of the files that will be deployed
will need that name, whereas as deployed they have a

I see what you're saying. Tried to put it into play, but I'm obviously
still missing some fundamental knowledge. How do I call the variable?
I tried:

and it wouldn't work. I can get the
