ansible.builtin.host_pinned – Executes tasks on each host without interruption

Note

This module is part of ansible-base and included in all Ansible installations. In most cases, you can use the short module name host_pinned even without specifying the collections: keyword. Despite that, we recommend you use the FQCN for easy linking to the module documentation and to avoid conflicting with other collections that may have the same module name.

New in version 2.7: of ansible.builtin

Synopsis

  • Task execution is as fast as possible per host in batch as defined by serial (default all). Ansible will not start a play for a host unless the play can be finished without interruption by tasks for another host, i.e. the number of hosts with an active play does not exceed the number of forks. Ansible will not wait for other hosts to finish the current task before queuing the next task for a host that has finished. Once a host is done with the play, it opens it’s slot to a new host that was waiting to start. Other than that, it behaves just like the “free” strategy.
