Ansible commands that require ssh connection between two docker containers are taking very long time to complete
I'm following one of the courses on Udemy about CI/CD, Jenkins, Docker, Ansible, etc. that was recommended in my company. It's quite good, but unfortunately a bit old, outdated and doesn't seem to be maintained by the author anymore.
I have a CentOS VM that is running Docker with 3 containers:
- jenkins-host - based on jenkins/jenkins image
- remote-host - built using centos:7 image
- db-host - buit using mysql:5.7 image
For the exercise I'm stuck with, the jenkins-host has ansible installed and then use it to:
- ping the remote-host
- connect to remote-host via ssh and execute a shell command there
All the connections are configured to use ssh key authentication and are working perfectly fine when I do it manually from a command line. Also pinging works as expected. However, when ansible comes into play everyhting takes a lot of time to execute. Both 'ansible' and 'ansible-playbook' commands are stuck for couple of minutes until completed successfully. Tried many solutions found in different places (thus current shape of .ansible.cfg file), but none seems to help.
My .ansible.cfg:
jenkins@2230a9d85613:~/ansible$ cat ../.ansible.cfg
[defaults]
remote_tmp = /tmp/.ansible-${USER}/tmp
host_key_checking = False
[ssh_connection]
ssh_args = -C -o ControlMaster=auto -o ControlPersist=60s
control_path = /dev/shm/cp%%h-%%p-%%r
My hosts inventory:
jenkins@2230a9d85613:~/ansible$ cat hosts
[all:vars]
ansible_connection = ssh
[test]
test1 ansible_host=remote_host ansible_user=remote_user ansible_private_key_file=/var/jenkins_home/ansible/remote-key
When I try to ping the remote_host from jenkins_host via ansible command:
jenkins@2230a9d85613:~/ansible$ ansible -i hosts -m ping test1 -vvv

On top of that I can hear that my PC hosting the VM that is running Docker containers is working hard at the time visibly nothing happens during ssh connection attempt. It's a small Intel NUC that I hardly ever hear running, but this time its fans are running crazy during these couple of minutes.

In SSHD config file, you need to disable the DNS lookup and restart the sshd process. this resolve the slowness issue.
