I have a role name system_check
. After the system start up, I need to wait until this role succeeds.
Is there a way to run this role repeatedly until it succeeds?
Q: "Is there a way to run a role until it succeeds in a play?"
A: It's not possible. The module include_role says:
Ignores some keywords, like until and retries.
Instead, use ansible-runner. For example, Use Runner as a standalone command line tool and test artifacts (rc, status, stdout).
For example,
#!/bin/bash
rcfile=private1/artifacts/ID01/rc
statusfile=private1/artifacts/ID01/status
ansible-runner -p test.yml -i ID01 run private1
rc=$(cat $rcfile)
echo "rc: $rc"
until [ "0" == "$rc" ]; do
ansible-runner -p test.yml -i ID01 run private1
rc=$(cat $rcfile)
echo "rc: $rc"
done
shell> tree private1
