Description of problem: OpenShift Facts should not be called on all hosts when only a single group is being modified. Example when running redeploy-etcd-ca.yml or redeploy-etcd-certificates.yml openshift facts is gathered on all node hosts causing the installer to take to much unneed time to redploy etcd certs. Version-Release number of the following components: └──> rpm -q openshift-ansible openshift-ansible-3.6.173.0.48-1.git.0.1609d30.el7.noarch └──> rpm -q ansible ansible-2.4.0.0-5.el7.noarch └──> ansible --version ansible 2.4.0.0 config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg configured module search path = [u'/home/cloud-user/.ansible/plugins/modules', u'/usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules'] ansible python module location = /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible executable location = /usr/bin/ansible python version = 2.7.5 (default, May 3 2017, 07:55:04) [GCC 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-14)] How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. $ ansible-playbook -i <inventory_file> \ /usr/share/ansible/openshift-ansible/playbooks/byo/openshift-cluster/redeploy-etcd-certificates.yml Actual results: Openshift facts gets call 2 times and ran on all nodes listed in hosts file Expected results: facts are only run on etcd hosts.
Thanks, we're aware of the problem and we'll make sure that we fix this as part of a larger effort to refactor playbooks into smaller components.

Verify this bug with openshift-ansible-3.10.0-0.46.0.git.0.85c3afd.el7.noarch. Tried with the following several playbooks, no useless "Gathering Facts" or "Verify Requirements" tasks run on the nodes now. playbooks/openshift-etcd/redeploy-certificates.yml playbooks/openshift-etcd/redeploy-ca.yml playbooks/openshift-hosted/redeploy-registry-certificates.yml
