I am running ansible on CentOS 6.8. This morning I ran yum update and got updated to a new version

Updating : ansible-2.2.1.0-1.el6.noarch

Unfortunately this appears to have broken my working ansible script. In particular, the task

- name: Gather info about consul servers  
setup:  
delegate\_to: “{{item}}”  
delegate\_facts: True  
when: “{{hostvars[item][‘ansible\_default\_ipv4’] is not defined}}”  
with\_items: “{{consul\_servers}}”

while it runs commands against each of the three hosts defined in the list {{consul\_servers}}, it only updates the hostvars for the first host. The second and third hosts are not set up with their associated ansible\_\* variables in hostvars.

This worked yesterday but not today.

First, is it possible that today’s update changed this behavior?

Second, is there a workaround - this functionality is critical for my script.

Peter

Did you find a solution to this? I’m having the same issue on the same version, ansible 2.2.1.0.

nvm, found a bug report on this issue here:

[https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/20980](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/20980)

I’ll update that ticket with my feedback.
