![]() Inventory updates have changed from using deprecated inventory scripts, to using dynamically-generated YAML files which are parsed by their respective inventory plugin. If the results of a Smart Inventory contains more than one host with identical hostnames, only one of the matching hosts will be included as part of the Smart Inventory, ordered by Host ID. Hosts associated with the Smart Inventory are manifested at view time. Variables on Host and Group are changeable In Groups that were created as a result of inventory source syncs In some situations, you can modify the following:Ī new Host manually created on Inventory w/ inventory sources It will not allow them direct read permission to hosts, or permit them to see additional hosts under /#/hosts/, although they can still view the hosts under the smart inventory host list. However, this will not give them any special permissions to hosts (which live in a different inventory). Organization admins already have implicit “admin” access to all inventories inside the organization, therefore, this does not convey any permissions they did not already possess.Īdministrators of the Smart Inventory can grant other users (who are not also admins of your organization) permissions like “use” “adhoc” to the smart inventory, and these will allow the actions indicate by the role, just like other standard inventories. In order to modify the host_filter, you need to be the organization administrator of the inventory’s organization. Note, host_filter only apply to hosts inside of inventories inside of the Smart Inventory’s organization. The administrator of a Smart Inventory has permission to edit fields such as the name, description, variables, and the ability to delete, but does not have the permission to modify the host_filter, because that will affect which hosts (that have a primary membership inside another inventory) are included in the smart inventory. You cannot create hosts from a Smart Inventory host endpoint ( /inventories/N/hosts/) as with a normal inventory. Names of Host and Group created as a result of an inventory source sync You can view actual inventories without being editable: This will update memberships in the following events:Īn existing host is modified (updated or deleted)Īn existing Smart Inventory is modified (updated or deleted) To update the memberships more frequently, you can change the file-based setting AWX_REBUILD_SMART_MEMBERSHIP to True (default is False). Organization: The organization to which the inventory belongs.Īctions: The following actions are available for the selected inventory: Type: Identifies whether it is a standard inventory or a Smart Inventory. (This view is also accessible from the icon.) Clicking the Inventory name navigates to the properties screen for the selected inventory, which shows the inventory’s groups and hosts. Status Dot: This shows the status of recent jobs for this inventory. Clicking this icon displays the sync status for the last five inventory source syncs and source information, if the inventory has sources that are able to sync. Inventory Sync ( ): Green indicates successful syncs in the inventory, and red indicates failed syncs. The inventory list may be sorted and searched by Name, Type, or Organization. This tab displays a list of the inventories that are currently available. ![]() Refer to Inventory File Importing in the Ansible Tower Administration Guide. ![]() If you have a custom dynamic inventory script, or a cloud provider that is not yet supported natively in Tower, you can also import that into Tower.
