How to run multiple playbooks concurrently in parallel

[wpgpo...@gmail.com]

Hello Group,

Is there a way that I can run a playbook concurrently?

Currently, if I'm running the script with multiple playbook (2x or 3x or so), it will run and finish the first playbook before proceeding on the next playbook in the line.

The idea is that I want to run a script that has multiple playbooks (2x or 3x or so) concurrently in parallel at the same time. Meaning, the job1, job2, job3, and job4 will run at the same time and should NOT wait to finish each other.

Any help and guidance is highly appreciated.

An example of the scenarios are below.

Scenarios

shell script

/home/fuser/scripts/ansbile/playbooks/servers/server_job.sh

server_job.sh

ansible-playbook main_job.yml -e "server=job1" --limit runtime-host-group

ansible-playbook main_job.yml -e "server=job2" --limit runtime-host-group

ansible-playbook main_job.yml -e "server=job3" --limit runtime-host-group

ansible-playbook main_job.yml -e "server=job4" --limit runtime-host-group

runtime-host-group

[runtime-host-group]

runtime001

runtime002

main_job.yml (using import_playbook)

- name: Playbook to Stop/Start

  hosts: all

- name: Stop-Runtime | Stop the Runtime

  import_playbook: "/home/fuser/scripts/ansbile/playbooks/servers/playbook_sbxrun_runtime_stop_systemCTL.yml"

- name: Start-Runtime | Start the Runtime

  import_playbook: "/home/fuser/scripts/ansbile/playbooks/servers/playbook_sbxrun_runtime_start_systemCTL.yml"

playbook_sbxrun_runtime_stop_systemCTL.yml

- name: Process to STOP

  hosts: all

  tasks:

    - name: SystemCTL | STOP

      service:

        name: "{{ item }}"

        state: stopped

      become: yes

      with_items:

        - runtime-{{server}}.service

        - monitor-{{server}}.service

playbook_sbxrun_runtime_start_systemCTL.yml

- name: Process to START

  hosts: all

  tasks:

    - name: SystemCTL | STOP

      service:

        name: "{{ item }}"

        state: started

      become: yes

      with_items:

        - runtime-{{server}}.service

        - monitor-{{server}}.service

Thank you....

Try this:
server_job.sh

ansible-playbook main_job.yml -e "server=job1" --limit runtime-host-group &
ansible-playbook main_job.yml -e "server=job2" --limit runtime-host-group &
ansible-playbook main_job.yml -e "server=job3" --limit runtime-host-group &
ansible-playbook main_job.yml -e "server=job4" --limit runtime-host-group &
wait
