Dear all,
I’m trying probably something very simple but can’t get it to work. I’m
trying to exclude a group from a task. I have a playbook for all hosts
(hosts: all) but in one particular task I want to exclude a group, how do I
do that?
I know I can do something like:
hosts: all:!ntpservers
but that also excludes the ntpserver from all the other tasks.
This is what I’m trying to do:
I’m installing an ntp daemon on all systems but want to install the
configuration ntpd.conf on all systems EXCEPT for the servers in the group
“ntpservers”. I want to install a different configuration file on those
servers because these will become the real ntp servers, the others will
become clients.
I have this so far:
#-------------------------------------------------------------------#
#
NTP #
#-------------------------------------------------------------------#
- name: Role:common - ensure ntpd is installed on all nodes
yum: pkg=ntp state=installed
tags: ntp
- name: Role:common - be sure ntp is configured
template: src=ntp.conf.j2 dest=/etc/ntp.conf
notify:
- Handlers:common - restart ntpd
tags: ntp
- name: Role:common - be sure ntpd is running and enabled
service: name=ntpd state=running enabled=yes
tags: ntp
And I believe in the template part I have to exclude the group “ntpservers”
so I can install a different configuration file via a separate playbook
especially for the ntpservers (via roles).
Hope someone can help me out.
Kind regards,
Oliver.
