I moved all zabbix-web related tasks to a separate role found on https://github.com/dj-wasabi/ansible-zabbix-web. So both tasks you mention needs the 'always' tags is what you mean?
MVKozlov commented
no, I mean always should not be present in role because when playbook played with -t tag, (for example to skip all zabbix stuff) some tasks from zabbix role still played.
dj-wasabi commented
always tag has been removed from the role.
