Hi,
- name: all hosts in newdynamicgroup
debug:
msg: "{{play_hosts}}"
I have a playbook requirement where new hosts come and leave. Based on it i plan to create groups dynamically. However below playbook gives an error:
---
- hosts: all
connection: local
gather_facts: no
tasks:
- name: add new host and group dynamically
add_host:

ansible_host: "10.1.1.2"

The first dynamic host and group gets added succesfully but 2nd one fails with below error:

that's not an error. "newdynamicgroup" is empty so it doesn't execute the tasks in that play.

But i was adding host in that play:
add_host:
hostname: "test1"
ansible_host: "10.1.1.3"
ansible_ipaddress: "10.1.1.3"
groups: 'newdynamicgroup'
hostname: "test1"
ansible_host: "10.1.1.3"
ansible_ipaddress: "10.1.1.3"
groups: 'newdynamicgroup'
This should add host as well to this group isinit or am I doing something wrong here ?

That doesn't matter as the host list (group newdynamicgroup) is empty when Ansible looks at your play. Which means it
