Failed to connect to the host via ssh: Permission denied (publickey,password)

[a.srini...@gmail.com]

I have a playbook where it has an option that can be run in 2 different ways.

1. When having single host to execute, can run prompt.yml file to execute against single host.

2. When a large number of hosts exits, that was kept in a inventory and run against them.

Play book is working fine when executing with site_prompt.yml, but having issue when executing again site_inventory.yml

just a shot into the dark:

could it be, that the permissions on the files in .ssh of the target are wrong?

ssh is very picky here

I am running this playbook against the switches, where it does not have an inbuilt python to execute. It has to execute in localhost and then fetch the output.
That is working fine in prompt.yml file. but not working correctly in inventory.yml
