Need help to understand the output of ansible-playbook

[niraj pandey]

Hi ,

Can someone please explain me this output format (what is ok , changed ,unrechable ,failed and it's values meanings)?

Thanks in advance.

 ansible-playbook  uptime.yaml  -e "hosts=all"

PLAY RECAP ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************

abc                : ok=0    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=1

def                 : ok=0    changed=0    unreachable=1    failed=0

ghi                 : ok=3    changed=1    unreachable=0    failed=0

uptime.yaml:

- hosts: '{{ hosts }}'

  #remote_user: root

  tasks:

    - name: Collecting uptime On Group of Hosts

      shell: uptime

      register: look

    - debug: var=look.stdout_lines

Regards

you have 3 tasks, the 2 you defined and the implied 'fact gathering'.

host abc fact gathering fails so it is removed from play and you get 1 count of failed

host def is unreachable for fact gathering so you get 1 unreachable count

ghi works for all 3 tasks, shell always returns changed, so you get 3 OK, one of them also changed
