A collegue of mine has added basix AIX support to the setup, user and group modules.
We have tested this on AIX 5.3 and 6.1 and it works "as advertised"
Remove lots of re use that really shouldn't have been re in the first
place. Initialize pcidata even if lspci is unavailable, and check for
its usability before trying to use it.
Fixes#2060.
So In my Centos 5.9 machine, if there is RAID mount ansible will crash, as it cannot find scheduler file. The reason being, this should be a virtual device as there is no "device" folder under e.g. /sys/block/md0/
Here is the crash:
[kk@u1 ansible]$ ansible q3 -m setup -k -u root --tree=/tmp/facts
SSH password:
q3 | FAILED => failed to parse: /sys/block/md0

This updates apt, apt_repository, command, cron, easy_install, facter,
fireball, git, group, mount, ohai, pip, service, setup, subversion,
supervisorctl, svr4pkg, user, and yum to take advantage of run_command
in module_common.py.
I added all known virtualization types from the virt-what project. However, the few virt types that rely on cpuid information have not been implemented lacking native python cpuid access. (hyperv)
This gathers LSB facts via lsb_release. This complements the
platform facts collected via the platform module. This reoprts
release, id, description, release, and codename. It also adds
'major_release', which is the major version number of a distribution.
The use-case here is that based on information in the /proc/cmdline certain actions can be taken.
A practical example in our case is that we have a play at the end of the provisioning phase that reboots the system. Since we don't want to accidentally reboot a system (or restart the network) on a production machine, having a way to separate an Anaconda post-install (sshd in chroot) with a normal system is a good way to make that distinction.
---
- name: reboot
hosts: all
tasks:
- action: command init 6
only_if: "not '${ansible_cmdline.BOOT_IMAGE}'.startswith('$')"
A practical problem here is the fact that we cannot simply check whether it is set or empty:
---
- name: reboot
hosts: all
tasks:
- action: command init 6
only_if: "'${ansible_cmdline.BOOT_IMAGE}'"
If ansible_cmdline was a string, a simple only_if: "'${ansible_cmdline}'.find(' BOOT_IMAGE=')" was an option, but still not very "beautiful" :-/
This implementation uses shlex.split() and uses split(sep, maxsplit=1).
* Migraed easy_install, pip, service, setup, and user.
* Updated fail_json message in apt_repository
* Fixed easy_install to not hardcode location of virtualenv in
/usr/local/bin/.
* Made handling of virtualenv more consistent between easy_install and
pip.
