[ansible-project] Recovering from failure in handlers

[Shawn Ferry]

I've recently experienced the case where a handler has failed stopping the
remaining handler execution in a playbook.

Once the triggering change has completed subsequent playbook execution will
not notify the handlers again even if they didn't finish the last time.

Is there any way to capture the handlers which would have been run and run
them on a subsequent playbook execution? Clearly the best thing would be
not failing in the first place but I can't always ensure that will be the
case.

you can try *ignore_errors: yes *in your handler.
