In Ansible, a timeout can be specified for various operations such as connecting to
a remote host, waiting for a command to complete, or waiting for a condition to become true.
The timeout value can be set in seconds using the timeout parameter.
For example, to set a timeout of 10 seconds for connecting to a remote host,
you can use the following code in your playbook:
- name: Connect to a remote host
hosts: remote_host
gather_facts: false
tasks:
- name: Wait for SSH to become available
wait_for:
port: 22
state: started
timeout: 10
Note that the exact timeout values and their usage may vary depending on the module
being used. You can refer to the documentation for the specific module you are using
for more information on setting timeouts.
