Hi, I am having an issue with trying to run a workflow template against multiple hosts. My workflow runs a certain playbook and forks off into different playbooks if the result is a ‘failure’ or ‘success’. The issue is the workflow template is run against a Group which contains multiple hosts. If just one of the hosts ‘fail’ it registers the node as a failure which pushes all hosts down the ‘failure’ route. I have been combing documentation but cannot find a solution to this issue, but I’m sure other people have needed to run a workflow against multiple hosts before and faced this issue. Any advice would be extremely appreciated! Cheers, Jordan ---

Hi Jordan, This is expected behavior, I know this may not be ideal for your situation but there is a setting for the following nodes to “Always” regardless of failure or success of the previous nodes. Would that functionality address your goals? If not can you maybe give me a more concrete example of the problem you’re having and what your desired functionality is? Cheers, rebeccahhh & the AWX team
