multinode_firewall_persistence_vars

This directory is meant to contain distribution specific variables used in integration tests for the multinode_firewall_persistence role.

The behavior of the with_first_found lookup used with the include_vars module will make it search for the vars directory in the "usual" order of precedence which means if there is a vars directory inside the playbook directory, it will search there first.

This can result in one of two issues:

  1. If you try to prepend {{ role_path }} to workaround this issue with the variable file paths, Zuul will deny the lookup if you are running an untrusted playbook because the role was prepared in a trusted location and Ansible is trying to search outside the work root as a result.
  2. The variables included are the wrong ones -- the ones from playbooks/vars are loaded instead of path/to/<role>/vars

This is why this directory is called multinode_firewall_persistence_vars.
