spacewalk.py issues and questions

[David Jacobs]

I am trying to get a good inventory from both a spacewalk and an older satellite server.   I was able to share the spacewalk.py script with those server and produce an output, which is all one 1 line, and looks something like this:  {"CentOS6_Servers": ["server1", "server2", "server3", "server4", "server5",   ... etc for 600+ servers and many many groops.    When I try this:

ansible CentOS6_Servers -a "hostname" -i /etc/ansible/inventory/spacewalk_list_07-11-2014.txt

I get this ->   ERROR: Invalid ini entry: [ncias-p584.nci.nih.gov, - need more than 1 value to unpack

Is this due to the file being all one line?  Is this improper YAML syntax, maybe?  Sorry, I am a new to YAML Syntax, and Ansible.

Am I using spacewalk.py incorrectly?  

Thanks for assistance you can give me.

Yes. You should point Ansible to the script, not saved output (if the file given to -i is executable, Ansible will use it as dynamic inventory).
The error you are getting says that Ansible expects static inventories to be in an INI-like syntax.

so, like this?

ansible -i spacewalk.py textfile.txt?

More like:
ansible CentOS6_Servers -i spacewalk.py -m ping

What was textfile.txt meant to be?

ansible -i spacewalk.py playbook.yml

and spacewalk.py should be marked executable (chmod +x)

You mean "ansible-playbook -i spacewalk.py playbook.yml"?
