“When” condition on Ansible playbook doesn't w

问题:

Below playbook use conditional statement with operators in Ansible. When I run the playbook, it never takes/validates the condition instead it consider the last set_fact value for "shmall".

---
- hosts: sandbox
  user: robo
  become: yes
  gather_facts: yes
  tasks:
  - debug: msg="{{ansible_memtotal_mb}}"

  - name: SHMALL value for MEM less than 16G
    set_fact:
       shmall: 3670016
       when: ansible_memtotal_mb|int <= 16384

  - name: SHMALL value for MEM is between 16G and 32G
    set_fact:
       shmall: 7340032
       when: ansible_memtotal_mb|int > 16384 and ansible_memtotal_mb|int <= 32768

  - debug: var=shmall

Fix your indentation. when is not an argument of a set_fact action, but of a task:

- name: SHMALL value for MEM less than 16G
  set_fact:
    shmall: 3670016
  when: ansible_memtotal_mb|int <= 16384

- name: SHMALL value for MEM is between 16G and 32G
  set_fact:
    shmall: 7340032
  when: ansible_memtotal_mb|int > 16384 and ansible_memtotal_mb|int <= 32768
