I have a 2 tasks in a playbook and from task1 I have a variable collected
from the register output as below.
- name: Playbook to collect the actual hostname
hosts: server1
become: yes
tasks:
- name: collect the actual hostname
shell: 'hostname'
register: short_name
- name: collect the hostname for the next task
set_fact:
reg_name: "{{ short_name.stdout_lines[-1].split('.')[1] }}"
- name: Playbook to test the new hostname collections
hosts: 127.0.0.1
become: yes
tasks:
- name: print the collected hostname
debug:
msg: {{reg_name }}
collecting the host's shortname using set_fact is working . However the
data stored using set_fact in reg_name is not carry to the next task.
Is there an option/module available to have the variable from one task to be
made available to the next?
