Playbook: What changed?

Archives Ansible Project

HI,

I have a large playbook. I ran it and got this:

PLAY RECAP **********************
xxx.xxx.net : ok= 58 changed= 3 unreachable= 0 failed= 0

yyy.xxx.net : ok= 58 changed= 3 unreachable= 0 failed= 0

The problem is that I don’t know which three changed, and can’t seem to tell from the output. Since there is no reason for these to change every run, I’d like to track down which, so I know why. Examining syslog on the subject machine doesn’t help either.

How can I tell what changed?

Use --verbose when running the playbook. You may wish to set up an alias.

Hi Ed,

try re-running the playbook with the --verbose flag. It will probably tell you what is changed and what is not.

Best,
