Hi everyone !

I have a question regarding the combination of serial and start-at-task.
Consider the follwoing play:

---

- name: "play"

hosts: all

serial: 1

gather_facts: no

tasks:

- name: task 1

debug:

msg: "Hello from task 1"

- name: task 2

debug:

msg: "Hello from task 2"

When i run this useing --start-at-task="task 2" ony the first host starts at "task2".

A subsequent hosts run the full play.

My expectation was that all host start at "task2" in their batch.

Is this my fault, is this a bug or intentional ?

Thanks Henk

I would have to dig in but it looks like you might be getting a `play_context.start_at_task = None` and this sounds like a great test to add.
