3 years ago A few notes from triage session:
- we think the correct approach would be to have all proxy→LCE associations in one place (so not splitting them across different playbooks/variables/whatever), as this makes assignment straight forward and idempotent
- the "reverse" workflow as requested by @dabelenda is certainly possible and we would accept a patch for that, but are not planning on implementing it ourself right now.
- when implementing, keep in mind that also the "unassignment" of the LCE from the proxy needs to be taken into account.
Personnally, I would prefer to have the list of capsules where the LifeCycle environment is replicated in the LifeCycle environment definition. I find it cleaner in the ansible code, specially if you want to define lifecycle environments in different playbooks/inventories.
