I am creating a playbook that is used for multiple hosts - now this might not be the best way but I still want to figure it out. I have two hosts now one that is centos 7 and one that is in amazon ec2. Obviously one uses systemd and the other does not. All the tasks apply to both hosts except for the stopping of firewalld ---

Use when: [1] on the task to only run it on appropriate host or set ignore\_errors: yes [2] on the task.
