Hello gianluca,

PS: Something else that may help, try to hack the ovirt4.py with ansible_host if you want to call the hosts into playbook by the hostname and not the first IP:

vi /opt/rh/rh-python36/root/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/awx/plugins/inventory/ovirt4.py

'affinity_labels': [label.name for label in labels],
## ajout NBT pour obtenir le nom de l'hote a la place de l ip
'ansible_host': vm.name,
'affinity_groups': [



Hello,
coming back to this PS of yours.
in my case vm.name is not always resolvable, so it is not so feasible.
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?

In the mean time I opened an issue in awx:
