==============
Working fine,
ansible-playbook prometheusjmxrole.yml -i ../inventory/staging.yaml -b
Sameer Modak
name: Create Prometheus install and config directory
become: true. <------ does not work
file:
path: "{{ item }}"
state: directory
mode: 0755
owner: "{{user}}"
group: "{{group}}"
loop:
- "{{ jmxexporter_jar_path | dirname }}"
- "{{ jmxexporter_config_path }}"
If i put become: true at role playbook it works but i dont want to give blanket become: true hence i was trying to do at task level.
vim prometheusjmxrole.yml
name: Deploy jmx_exporter
hosts: all
become: true. <---------------- works fine if we set it here but i dont want it in this way.
tasks:
- name: Importing jmx prometheus role
import_role:
name: prometheusjmx

task does work. Tried with your task (supplying my own values for the
vars) and it works the same, putting it on the task, the play, a
block, role or command line. The only way i get it to 'not work' is
setting ansible_become: false , but that makes them ALL not work, not
just the task level become.
I cannot tell from the email as it breaks formatting, but my guess
would be that it is set to the task.
