awx smart inventory: problem to get ansible_facts

Archives AWX Project

Hi,

I’m trying to create smart inventories on the base of major operating system version
unfortunately in the facts received from the hosts the entry is received as ansible_distribution_major_version: ‘7’
and, probably due to the presence of ’ character I’m not able to match the os version with smart host filter search string similar to ansible_facts.ansible_distribution_major_version:‘7’
I did many attempts with many variations of ‘7’ but without success
Do someone have any idea how to solve the problem ?

Thanks
Stefano

Can you try with this filter. This isn’t perfect but give a try

variables:linux
variables:7
variables:running

Dear Sujith A R

I tried what you suggested but unfortunately without successfrom my point of view, presenting facts with the following format

ansible_distribution_file_parsed: true
ansible_distribution_file_path: /etc/redhat-release
ansible_distribution_file_variety: RedHat
ansible_distribution_major_version: ‘7’
ansible_distribution_release: Core
ansible_distribution_version: 7.5.1804

should be considered a bug

Thanks for your help attempt
