Use ip's for production hosts when creating dump and syncing

[Qwinci]

Use production host from the inventory with a different hostname
<hostname>.prod when creating the dump and syncing to avoid dns/Ansible
issues where the dump would be created on the target machine instead of the
production machine. This requires that the production ip's are specified
in the inventory under the .prod hostname with ansible_host and possibly
the user with ansible_user if running against Vagrant VM where the used user
doesn't match the one used on the production machine.
This should be merged at around the same time with the corresponding file sync change and possibly inventory changes.

So with doppelgaenger this would mean the production hosts just get added in the inventory with the .prod suffix in the inventory script instead of as is?

When setting up a new server that will replace the prod you'd change the IP for the production server's name and add a '.prod' into the inventory for syncing?

What about syncing to a clone of a production server that does not have the same hostname, a staging instance or such?

I think it will be good to document how to use this once the details are finalized.
