Use ansible\-pull to set up a remote copy of ansible on each managed node, each set to run via cron and update playbook source via a source repository\&. This inverts the default \fBpush\fR architecture of ansible into a \fBpull\fR architecture, which has near\-limitless scaling potential\&.
The setup playbook can be tuned to change the cron frequency, logging locations, and parameters to ansible\-pull\&.

This is useful both for extreme scale\-out as well as periodic remediation\&. Usage of the \fIfetch\fR module to retrieve logs from ansible\-pull runs would be an excellent way to gather and analyze remote logs from ansible\-pull\&.
The name of one the YAML format files to run as an ansible playbook\&. This can be a relative path within the checkout\&. If not provided, ansible\-pull will look for a playbook based on the host\(cqs fully\-qualified domain name, on the host hostname and finally a playbook named
Force running of playbook even if unable to update playbook repository\&. This can be useful, for example, to enforce run\-time state when a network connection may not always be up or possible\&.
