I am trying to subsequently run a task after I am connected using ssh. I am connecting using this in my playbook
- name: connect using password # task 1; this task set/connect me as root
expect:
command: ssh -o "StrictHostKeyChecking=no" myuser@********
responses:
"password:":
-my password
-my password
delegate_to: localhost
That task is fine and I am able to see that I am connected. The problem now is that when I try to run subsequent tasks for example:
- name: copy folder # task 2 in the same playbook
copy:
src: "files/mylocalfile.txt"
dest: "etc/temp"
mode: "0777"
I have the following message:
"msg: etc/temp not writable"
How do I do to continue executing the remaining task as root that got connected in task1
?
I believe this might not be an ansible question, but a linux one. Is your user in /etc/wheel?
Ansible has the direective become
, which will let you execute a task as root, if the user you are connecting with is allowed to escalate privileges. The task you want to run with privileges would be something like:
- name: copy folder # task 2 in the same playbook
become: yes
copy:
src: "files/mylocalfile.txt"
dest: "etc/temp"
mode: "0777"
you can use become_user
if you need to specify the user you want to run the task as, and if you have a password for the privileged user, you can ask ansible to prompt for the password when running ansible-playbook, using --ask-become-password
.
The following link offers documentation about privilege escalation in ansible:
