title: Ansible - Play with hosts in order I desire
body: <p>When running a playbook Ansible randomly sets a node as first, second and third.</p>
  <pre class="lang-yaml prettyprint-override"><code>ok: [node-p02]
  ok: [node-p03]
  ok: [node-p01]
  </code></pre>
  <p><strong>Q:</strong> How can I configure Ansible to let it execute with the hosts in sorted order? Example:</p>
  <pre class="lang-yaml prettyprint-override"><code>ok: [node-p01]
  ok: [node-p02]
  ok: [node-p03]
  </code></pre>
  <p><code>Serial: 1</code> is not an option, since it slows down the play, and my playbook is meant for 3 nodes in a single play.</p>
