passign arguments to the handler

Hi,

I see many thread of discussion on this topic, but I am not able to find any resolution on this. I want to be able to pass parameters to my handler.

I am managing a set of Redis DB on a node, and if the configuration on any of them changes, I want to be able to restart that specific instance of Redis DB. In the main task I have a loop like this

  • name: Setup the redis db config file for the DBs that we are slave node
    template:
    src: redis.slave.conf
    dest: “/etc/redis/redis.{{item.db_name}}.conf”
    with_items: “{{slave_db}}”
    become: yes
    notify:
  • restart redis_server

The problem is even if one of the configurations have changed, or if a new DB is added, this results in restart of all the DB instances.

I would like to do something like - restart redis_server <db_instance>

is there any way to do something like that?

Thanks
jana
