How to execute task on subset of hosts - Ansible

Host file

[root@tiber ~]# cat hosts.yml
[nodes]
tiber
po
docker

I want to run task on 2ND & 3RD HOSTS only.

[root@tiber ~]# cat play.yml

- hosts: all

  tasks:

   - shell: "hostname"

     when: inventory_hostname != play_hosts[0]

[root@tiber ~]# ansible-playbook -i hosts.yml play.yml

 [WARNING]: The version of gmp you have installed has a known issue regarding

timing vulnerabilities when used with pycrypto. If possible, you should update

it (ie. yum update gmp).
