Due to a bug in ansible, kolla-ansible deploy currently fails in nova
with the following error when used with ansible earlier than 2.8:

TASK [nova : Waiting for nova-compute services to register themselves]
*********
task path:
/home/zuul/src/opendev.org/openstack/kolla-ansible/ansible/roles/nova/tasks/discover_computes.yml:30
fatal: [primary]: FAILED! => {
    "failed": true,
    "msg": "The field 'vars' has an invalid value, which
        includes an undefined variable. The error was:
        'nova_compute_services' is undefined\n\nThe error
        appears to have been in
        '/home/zuul/src/opendev.org/openstack/kolla-ansible/ansible/roles/nova/tasks/discover_computes.yml':
        line 30, column 3, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file
        depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe
        offending line appears to be:\n\n\n- name: Waiting
        for nova-compute services to register themselves\n ^
            here\n"
}

Example:
http://logs.openstack.org/00/669700/1/check/kolla-ansible-centos-source/81b65b9/primary/logs/ansible/deploy

This was caused by
https://review.opendev.org/#/q/I2915e2610e5c0b8d67412e7ec77f7575b8fe9921,
which hits upon an ansible bug described here:
https://github.com/markgoddard/ansible-experiments/tree/master/05-referencing-registered-var-do-until.

We can work around this by not using an intermediary variable.

Kolla-Ansible Overview

The Kolla-Ansible is a deliverable project separated from Kolla project.

Kolla-Ansible deploys OpenStack services and infrastructure components in Docker containers.

Kolla's mission statement is:

To provide production-ready containers and deployment tools for operating
OpenStack clouds.

Kolla is highly opinionated out of the box, but allows for complete customization. This permits operators with little experience to deploy OpenStack quickly and as experience grows modify the OpenStack configuration to suit the operator's exact requirements.
