When using openstack-ansible-lxc_container_create role with an SSH jumpbox, sits waiting forever for container even though ssh is available.

When using https://github.com/openstack/openstack-ansible-lxc_container_create
role https://github.com/openstack/openstack-ansible-lxc_container_create/blob/master/tasks/container_create.yml file

The play "Wait for ssh to be available" runs from localhost with wait_for and checks port 22 connectivity.

In our case we use an SSH jump box and set the SSH connection through our bastion box using the .ssh/config file. As a result this check never succeeds even though connectivity is fine and working.

http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/wait_for_connection_module.html Could be great. But ansible 2.3.

Would adding delegate_to: "{{ physical_host }}" be enough for you?

Looks like there is a proposed fix - just needs another + to merge it i think?

Should this be closed now that https://review.openstack.org/#/c/456689/ has merged?

What's the status on this?

[Jonathan Rosser (jrosser)]

With appropriate ssh config OSA is capable of deploying via an SSH bastion. My lab is set up like this today. Marking as fixed.
