Hello,
I am trying to use hostvars to get an inventory hostname and a specific
variable. The goal of this is to get from the app group, get each unique
servers client_name. The below command works for just the first line as I
am fairly confident the 0 means first item in the inventory file.
I need to get it to be a per line item of the inventory file so that each
servers client name is read out. I have tried a couple variations but I
can't seem to get this correct. Can anyone provide any insight as to what I
might be doing wrong.
"{{ hostvars[groups['apps'][0]]['client_name'] }}"
inventory file
[apps]
server1 instance_user=fondinst client_name=fondprd1 server_ip=
server2 instance_user=kumcinst client_name=kumcprd1 `server_ip=
[proxy]
proxy1

debug: msg="{{ hostvars[groups['apps'][0]]['client_name'] }}"
