Good morning,
I am attempting to use the (shell:) command to obtain the disk space for a
remote host. Once I get the command working, I'll then use AWK to filter
the output.
However, the below example playbook insists on running the (shell:) command
on the local Ansible control machine, and not the remote host (server1).
Thus, I end up with disk space (/var) for the Ansible machine, and NOT the
remote host (server1). Does anyone know how what I may be doing wrong?
Other commands for example (bigip_command:) run on the remote host fine.
If I enter a directory (chdir:) that only exists on the remote host,
Ansible throws an error like "Directory does not exist", which is true, as
it is looking on the local machine.
Thank you!
