Hi All,

I have a play book, i need a help on how to display no of failed and successfull task as the out always ,

PLAY RECAP \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*  
server1 : ok=5 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed=0  
server2 : ok=5 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed=0

**Example:**

PLAY RECAP \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*  
server1 : ok=5 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed=0 task\_succeed=4 task\_failed=1  
server2 : ok=5 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed=0 task\_succeed=3 task\_failed=2

Tired the set as per the link “[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49805434/ansible-increment-count-in-play-recap-for-failed-tasks-when-using-ignore-errors](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49805434/ansible-increment-count-in-play-recap-for-failed-tasks-when-using-ignore-errors)” but no luck.

with\_items:

- { tname: ‘rpc-svcgssd.service’ }
- { tname: ‘nfs-idmapd’ }  
register: kerbros\_status  
failed\_when: kerbros\_status.rc != 3  
changed\_when: false  
ignore\_errors: True  
tags: kerbros
- name: Increment variable  
set\_fact: failed\_count={{ failed\_count | int + 1 }}  
when: kerbros\_status.failed
