Yes, I know, if you think that this logic is right, ok
But what do you think about this?

Yes, I can declare my values in yml files but when it needs to deploy 30-40 applications on several servers and after that the same again and again (dev → test → preprod …) it will be useful to change values and server IPs only in the host file.

Keeping simple variables in a host file is ok, but obviously you can't
set the same variable twice to two different values and have it work
:slight_smile:

It seems like you should consider vars or vars_files on the play and
set the variables per play instead if you want that behavior.
