Hi Community,

One more question about referencing and exportd jobs for Ansible.  
But I think it is not Ansible specific, it’s more a generic exportd question.

I have a type server object, which could have been referenced in multiple type disk objects.  
In exportd, I do like to have all field from object server and all fields from referenced disks.

**Type Server**

- Name: demoserver.contoso.local
- OS: Windows Server 2019
- Status: Active

**Type Disks**

- Label: System
- Size: 50
- Driveletter: C
- Server: Reference Field to Server demoserver.contoso.local

**Type Disks**

- Label: Data
- Size: 100
- Driveletter: D
- Server: Reference Field to Server demoserver.contoso.local

Expected exportd result:

```auto
{
   "all":{
      "hosts":[
         "p-vm-rdck-001"
      ]
   },
   "_meta":{
      "hostvars":{
         "p-vm-rdck-001":{
            "status":"active",
            "osname":"Windows Server 2019 Datacenter",
            "inv_disks": [
                {
                    "C": {
                        "size": 50,
                        "label": "system"
                    },
                    "D": {
                        "capacity_gb": 100,
                        "label": "data"
                    }
                }
            ]
         }
      }
   }
}

```

Any advice how to achive this, if it’s possible?

Thanks,  
Oliver
