But also the default configuration of ansible_host seems quite unfortunate.... With the default configuration, I see that for VMs with 2 ips, it gets the eth1 one, not matching the VM hostname and so the job fails because of unreachable host. So I'm trying substituting /var/lib/awx/venv/awx/lib/python3.6/site-packages/awx/plugins/inventory/ovirt4.py from return { 'id': vm.id, 'name': vm.name, ... 'devices': dict( (device.name, [ip.address for ip in device.ips]) for device in devices if device.ips ), 'ansible_host': next((device.ips[0].address for device in devices if device.ips), None) } to: return { 'id': vm.id, 'name': vm.name, ... 'devices': dict( (device.name, [ip.address for ip in device.ips]) for device in devices if device.ips ), 'ansible_host': vm.fqdn } If I do this with my test tmp file I see that comparing output of command (py36) bash-4.4# ./ovirt4.py I have a new value for ansible_host, matching the fqdn of the VM But going into awx, the job continues to fail and also if I go to inventory -> sources and sync, even if I check all the "update options": OVERWRITE OVERWRITE VARIABLES UPDATE ON LAUNCH Still the vm contains ansible_host with the old value, matching the second interface and not the fqdn... Any suggestion? Gianluca
