Hi All,

Is there any way to check the check the message error text returned by module in msg against some pattern?

I want to skip execution of next task if msg contains “LoadBalancerNotFound” string.

`
TASK: [elb | Wait ELB to deassociate from SG] *********************************
failed: [127.0.0.1] => {“attempts”: 0, “failed”: true}
msg: LoadBalancerNotFound: Cannot find Load Balancer test

FATAL: all hosts have already failed – aborting

`

Thanks,
Regards

use register to put the return info into a var, then you can use it to
scan for the match.

I registered variable. What’s the best way to scan for the match?
