is it possible to add ansible_ssh_common_args in inventory file
The problem is here:
ansible_ssh_common_args: '-o ProxyCommand="ssh -W %h:%p -q [email protected]"'
Replace ":" by "=" and write like this:
ansible_ssh_common_args='-o ProxyCommand="ssh -W %h:%p -q [email protected]"'
To help others, keep in mind that your inventory file is a '.ini' file.
'.ini' files e.g ansible.cfg
, use '=' to assign variables, as 'yaml' files use ':'.

i want to jump/SSH Bastion Host using ProxyCommand of ansible_ssh_common_args. ansible server:10.10.149.2 gateway/Bastion host:10.10.149.70 host to connect:10.32.32.190 So my aim is to connect 10.32.32.190 from 10.10.149.2 trough 10.10.149.70 (ssh tunneling)
ansible --version ansible 2.1.0.0
my inventory:
[local] 10.10.149.2 [Private] 10.32.32.190 [Private:vars] ansible_ssh_common_args: '-o ProxyCommand="ssh -W %h:%p -q [email protected]"'
pingtest.yml:
--- - hosts: Private tasks: - name: test connection ping: register: ping1 - debug: var=ping1
Issue facing:
fatal: [10.32.32.190]: UNREACHABLE! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Failed to connect to the host via ssh.", "unreachable": true}
So i doubt ansible_ssh_common_args support in inventory file.i do not want to use the ssh.config file.
