A common failure early on when using Kayobe is during discovery of SSH
known hosts. This happens if a host does not have an IP address
configured on the admin (SSH) network. The failure looks like this:
PLAY [Ensure known hosts are configured]
**********************************************************************
TASK [ssh-known-host : Scan for SSH keys]
**********************************************************************
failed: [compute0 -> localhost] (item=) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item",
"changed": false, "cmd": ["ssh-keyscan"], "delta": "0:00:00.013855",
"end": "2020-04-17 10:51:01.857855", "item": "", "msg": "non-zero
return code", "rc": 1, "start": "2020-04-17 10:51:01.844000",
"stderr": "usage: ssh-keyscan [-46cDHv] [-f file] [-p port] [-T
timeout] [-t type]\n\t\t [host | addrlist namelist]",
"stderr_lines": ["u sage: ssh-keyscan [-46cDHv] [-f file] [-p port]
[-T timeout] [-t type]", "\t\t [host | addrlist namelist]"],
"stdout": "", "stdout_lines": []}
This happens when ansible_host is an empty string, typically because the
host has no IP address defined in for the admin network in
network-allocation.yml. This is very confusing for a new user. We should
provide a more informative message.
It's not exactly clear how a user gets to this point, since the
ip-allocation.yml playbook runs before ssh-known-host.yml, which should
populate network-allocation.yml.
This change detects this failure mode and provides a message with
information about how to resolve it.
