Monty Taylor c737bd48bc Deduplicate true duplicate entries in the openstack inventory There are cases where the host list back from the cloud comes back duplicated. This causes us to report those with UUIDs, which we do to support truly different servers with the same name. However, in the case where duplicate host entries have the same UUID, we can know it's a data hiccup.		2016-02-24 12:36:50 -06:00

inventory

Inventory scripts allow you to store your hosts, groups, and variables in any way you like. Examples include discovering inventory from EC2 or pulling it from Cobbler. These could also be used to interface with LDAP or database.

chmod +x an inventory plugin and either name it /etc/ansible/hosts or use ansible with -i to designate the path to the script. You might also need to copy a configuration file with the same name and/or set environment variables, the scripts or configuration files have more details.
