For over a month I've been running the following command:
ansible-playbook -vvvvi host_test rhel-tests.yml
Which connected via SSH and ran tests on a host successfully without any problems. But as of the last couple days, I've received the following when running:
fatal: [10.2.16.2]: UNREACHABLE! => {
"changed": false,
"unreachable": true
}
MSG:

Even though I can establish a normal SSH connection from bash to 10.2.16.2 just fine from the host I'm running.

Escalation succeeded
rhel-tests.yml
, so it's possible some sort of timeout is now being triggered that wasn't before. I've tried reverting back the version of rhel7 to about a month back, and the command still fails, so I believe that this is not likely to be the cause.paramiko_ssh
connection type, which also fails.ansible -i hosts_test -m ping 10.2.16.2
and get a pong backrhel-tests.yml
that reboot or shutdown.What's causing my playbook to fail and how can I fix it?
I believe the connection may be dropping due to the lack of output from your play.
Add the following to your ssh_args
in ansible.cfg
:
-o ServerAliveInterval=50
