delegate_to targets server being configured

Posted on

Hi,
We have automation for configuration setup. We are making Tower and Satellite be able to build RHEL9 boxes. RHEL8 boxes build just fine but the same code throws an error which is perplexing us.

The code is (I have obfuscated the bits you'd expect):

  • name: Flush handlers
    meta: flush_handlers

  • name: Stop SSSD
    service:
    name: sssd
    state: stopped

  • name: Flush SSSD cache # noqa 301
    ignore_errors: True
    command: sss_cache -E

  • name: Reboot server
    reboot:
    msg: "Reboot initiated by Ansible For System Initial Deployment"
    tags:

    • core_initial_deployment_reboot

  • name: Run Satellite Ansible Roles
    delegate_to: satelliteserverFQDN
    command: "/bin/hammer host ansible-roles play --name {{ inventory_hostname }}"

  • name: Configure Default Email Recipients
    delegate_to: localhost
    set_fact:
    notify_recipient: "{{ core_initial_deployment.notify_extra|join(',') }}"

  • name: Configure Extra Email Recipients
    delegate_to: localhost
    when: deployment_notify is defined
    set_fact:
    notify_recipient: "{{ notify_recipient + ',' + deployment_notify }}"

  • name: "Send Initial Deployment Complete Message To {{ deployment_notify }}"
    become: True
    mail:
    host: emailserverFQDNhere
    from: "Ansible Tower tower@domain.com"
    subject: "Initial Deployment Of {{ inventory_hostname_short|upper }} Complete"
    to: "{{ notify_recipient }}"
    cc: 'linuxroot@domain.com'
    body: "{{ lookup('template', 'deployment_notify.j2') }}"

The part failing is:

  • name: Run Satellite Ansible Roles
    delegate_to: satelliteserverfqdnhere
    command: "/bin/hammer host ansible-roles play --name {{ inventory_hostname }}"

And the output of this section is:

TASK [initial_deployment_dev : Run Satellite Ansible Roles] ********************
fatal: [serverbeingsetupFQDN -> {{ foreman.ip }}]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "cmd": "/bin/hammer host ansible-roles play --name serverbeingsetupFQDN", "msg": "[Errno 2] No such file or directory: b'/bin/hammer'", "rc": 2}

We can see in the logs on "serverbeingsetupFQDN" that Tower is trying to run this on "serverbeingsetupFQDN and not "satelliteserverFQDN"

Is there something amiss here. We've been head scratching for awhile now. Any assistance would be fantastic.

Thanks
