Group based host scan with timeout

[chambridge]

Specify type:

• Enhancement

Description:

• When performing the host scan break the inventory into groups=10 systems.
• Run the playbook multiple times for each of the created groups copying the fact output into a sequential result files (e.g. variables_path + groupNumber)
• Run host scan with a 30 minute timeout. Hitting the timeout essentially means we are going to skip that group of hosts (e.g. no output dictionary variable file for a failed group). Log systems affected by timeout.
• After all groups have been run collect JSON results from each of the existing output files and process the data for groups that didn’t have a timeout issue
