Ansible same host excludes himself in host_definition
I am struggling currently with my ansible host configuration.
I have two Playbooks which performs the following tasks:
playA : Copys build files from BuildServer to localhost (hosts: build_server[0])
playB : Copys build files from localhost to X target Systems (eg hosts: all,!build_server)
Following is the host file configuration:
Development Env:
[build_server]
build.server.intranet ansible_user=jenkins
[target_server]
build.server.intranet ansible_user=http
Production Env:
[build_server]
build.server.intranet
[GroupA]
serverXY.a
serverZ.a
[GroupB]
serverXY.b
serverZ.b
My deployment into production works fine but I cannot deploy anymore to development.
So my question: How can I execute a playbook from one host and the other on each other hosts, but with the edge case that my build_host can be my deploy_host ???
or as an alternative
How can i specify any static host which is not listed in my host definition?

Honestly, I don't get it. You have the following systems: - Controller (which you mean by localhost?) - a build server (which you use for both inventories (development and production) - and a target server (that exists only in development but not in production) First question, what are the groups for? are they relevant here? Second: is the build_server playbook run for production just green? If it really is the same host, than that should be the expected behavior

Honestly, I don't get it. You have the following systems: - Controller (which you mean by localhost?) - a build server (which you use for both inventories (development and production) - and a target server (that exists only in development but not in production) First question, what are the groups for? are they relevant here? Second: is the build_server playbook run for production just green? If it really is the same host, than that should be the expected behavior
