Hi,

Is it possible to load many files in one go? In a similar way to the yum module?

My issue is that I have ~80 application files that I load from vars.

pre\_tasks:

- name: Load default application config  
include\_vars: “{{ item }}”  
with\_fileglob: “{{ playbook\_dir }}/vars/app\_default-\*.yml”  
no\_log: True

When I do this with large inventories of 100’s of boxes it logs a line for every include which is a lot.

I would prefer if I could load all in one go per host.

I have added no\_log: True to reduce the noise but its still pretty noisey

Many thanks

James
