Ansible Updates
1.7 "Summer Nights" - Active Development
Windows support (alpha) using native PowerShell remoting:
- Tasks can now specify
run_once: true, meaning they will be executed exactly once. This can be combined withdelegate_toto trigger actions you want done just the one time versus for every host in inventory.
Other notable changes:
- Inventory speed improvements for very large inventories.
- Vault password files can now be executable, to support scripts that fetch the vault password.
For more details, see the CHANGELOG.
