Ansible: Need to understand how can we use scp and ssh command with shell or script.

[nishant bawane]

for i in `cat /tmp/list`
        do
        echo $i
        scp HLC_auth $i:.ssh/authorized_keys
        scp known_hosts.LLC $i:.ssh/known_hosts
        ssh $i "rm -rf .ssh/id_dsa*"
        ssh $i "ssh-keygen -d"
        done
Above the the task i need to run through playbook, please suggest how the playbook should look alike.


below is the code which run succesfully when i exclude scp and ssh commands -

 shell: for i in `cat /home/dp794d/temp/list`;
                do echo $i;
                done

Need to include the scp and ssh command also under the same shell.. how to perform that task.

There is many ways to do this, but you should probably start with the
script module until you get some experience with Ansible

I tried using script module to run the single scp command, but it is not working.


My script file(abc.sh) contains below scp command -

#!/bin/bash

 scp /home/capio/ansible/pmossWipm/day1/playbooks/xyz.yml a...@130.6.50.131:/home/user

My YML Looks like below -

---
- hosts: testserver
  tasks:

   - name: "run the script"
     script: /home/capio/ansible/pmossWipm/day1/scripts/abc.sh
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Error getting is as per below-


It is getting stuck here only and hence not proceeding.

Please suggest what exactly needs to be done!

This is not a Ansible problem, so you might have better luck in a more
bash/shell/ssh related community.

The only hint I will give you is to make that work you would need
passwordless ssh keys in place.
