problem with conditional and facts,

[Jan Mattsson]

I did a quick play which has a conditional:

when: ansible_swaptotal_mb == "2047" 

this conditional never evaluates as true, if I debug:

debug: var=ansible_swaptotal_mb  

I get

ok: [hostname] => { 

      "ansible_swaptotal_mb": "2047"

}

it seems to me my when statement would evaluate as true?

I have the same issue when I try "ansible_lsb.id"

what am I doing wrong here?

try:

when: ansible_swaptotal_mb == 2047

no quotes

thank you...I feel ashamed that I obviously had not tried that rather obvious solution..

[Brian Coca]

no shame, sometimes when immersed in a problem, it is hard to see the
obvious (forest/trees saying).
