The `--step` flag will definitely be useful for me, didn't know about that.
My one tip I'll add is to use the `--diff` argument when running a playbook to print out the specific changes made for each step. For debugging, use `--diff --check` to see all the changes that will be made - useful if it's been a while since you last run your playbook over a host.
- fanf2 5y agoThe Ansible —diff and —check options were the main reason I started using it in 2013; the other reason was that it’s agentless, so I didn’t need a special vm to run it on and I could control when it might change things.
- lazyweb 5y agoYes, usually working with "--diff --check" flags as well, and did not know about "--step" either. Will incorporate that into my workflow for sure.
