Trying to use wait_for to sequence a set of reboots

[leam hall]

Not doing well.

It starts here:   https://github.com/LeamHall/Ansible_Test/blob/master/playbooks/reboot_nodes.yml

- hosts: b2532_vms

become: True

vars:

hosts:

- genesis

- exodus

roles:

    - reboot

Which should call playbooks/roles/reboot/tasks/main.yml:  https://github.com/LeamHall/Ansible_Test/blob/master/playbooks/roles/reboot/tasks/main.yml

- name: reboot_and_wait_for

include: reboot_node.yml

include: wait_for.yml

include: debug.yml

with_items:

     - "{{ hosts }}"


Which should call:  https://github.com/LeamHall/Ansible_Test/blob/master/playbooks/roles/reboot/tasks/reboot_node.yml

- name: reboot

   command: /sbin/reboot

But doesn't. It does call the debug.yml file which just says "Hello there!"

Ideas? The goal is to reboot and wait_for each host in turn.

You can't have 3 includes in 1 task, you will need to split them into 3
separate tasks.

Kai, thanks! The issue is that I'm really struggling to get the "wait_for" to work. I need to have the rebooted machine up before I boot the next one. Any good pointers to docs? Ansible docs say it can be done but don't seem to show you how.

This is about the best I have so far. When I tried to put the duplicate tasks into a role it didn't work. May try an "include_tasks" after a nap.

what I'm using as part of a (multi-hosts) play:

Task one is to async trigger the reboot

Task two the wait for ssh to come back (for each host in the play) 

    - name: Reboot the system

      shell: sleep 2 && shutdown -r now "Ansible reboot triggered"

      become: True

      async: 1

      poll: 0

      ignore_errors: true

    # FixMe: Trigger the wait for ssh on all the targets (long operation)

    - name: waiting for server to come back

      wait_for:

        host: "{{ inventory_hostname }}"

        port: 22

        delay: 15

        timeout: 1200

        connect_timeout: 15

        state: started

      delegate_to: localhost
