Hello,

I’m trying to create an Ansible role, networking, to automate /etc/resolv.conf file. I created this role like below:

production

networking.yml

group\_vars/  
agroup  
bgroup

roles/  
networking/  
tasks/main.yml  
templates/resolv.conf.j2

In my resolv.conf.j2 file, I put variables in this file:

{% for item in nameserver %}  
nameserver {{ item }}  
{% endfor %}

The name servers will be different for different group systems.

In group\_vars/agroup:

Why don't you just run the code and check for yourself?  
Anyway, the answer to your question is yes.
