<h2>Inventory File Format<a class="headerlink" href="#inventory-file-format" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>Ansible works against multiple systems in your infrastructure at the
|
|
same time. It does this by selecting portions of systems listed in Ansible’s inventory file,
|
|
which defaults to /etc/ansible/hosts, and looks like this:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">mail</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">example</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">com</span>
|
|
|
|
<span class="p">[</span><span class="n">webservers</span><span class="p">]</span>
|
|
<span class="n">foo</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">example</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">com</span>
|
|
<span class="n">bar</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">example</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">com</span>
|
|
|
|
<span class="p">[</span><span class="n">dbservers</span><span class="p">]</span>
|
|
<span class="n">one</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">example</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">com</span>

|

<h2>Selecting Targets<a class="headerlink" href="#selecting-targets" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>These patterns target all hosts in the inventory file:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>all
|
|
*</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>It is also possible to address specific hosts:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>one.example.com
|
|
one.example.com:two.example.com</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>The following patterns address one or more groups, which are denoted with the bracket
|
|
headers in the inventory file:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>webservers
|
|
webservers:dbservers</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Individual hosts, but not groups, can also be referenced using wildcards:</p>
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<div><a href="#id1"><span class="problematic" id="id2">*</span></a>.example.com
|
|
<a href="#id3"><span class="problematic" id="id4">*</span></a>.com</div></blockquote>
|
|
<p>It’s also ok to mix wildcard patterns and groups at the same time:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>one*.com:dbservers</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>NOTE: It is not possible to target a host not in the inventory file.</p>
