When using Cobbler with Ansible a cobbler.ini file is needed by the /etc/ansible/cobbler.py script, otherwise Python errors like ConfigParser.NoSectionError: No section: 'cobbler' are shown. Maybe this could be added to the documentation. Thanks and cheers!
* Don't filter hosts remaining based on their failed state. Instead rely
on the PlayIterator to return None/ITERATING_COMPLETE when the host is
failed.
* In the free strategy, make sure we wait outside the host loop for all
pending results to be processed.
* Use the internal _set_failed_state() instead of manually setting things
when a failed child state is hit
Fixes#15623
This changeset addresses the issue reported here:
ansible/ansible-modules-core#1765
The yum module (at least) includes its task results as strings, rather than
dicts, and the code this changeset replaces assumed that in that instance the
task was skipped. The updated behaviour assumes that the task has been
skipped only if:
* results exist, and
* all results are dicts that include a truthy skipped value
* better fix for arch version detection
fixes #15696
* be extra safe about tracebacks in facts.py
* add comments to explain the setup
* make allowempty more conservative, ignore file content
* wrap function call in try/except
* should never happen, but if it happens the bug should be distribtion=N/A and not a traceback
* alias module is very basic and removing it leads to the suse default
config failing
* future improvements might test different modules and the effect of
them being removed
* When var name is the same as var content, try to template it before reporting that var is not defined.
Add asserts in test_var_blending to check this special corner case.
* Fix integration tests when using debug with list or dict.
It wasn't doing anything that a literal couldn't do and used
unicode_escape which only understands latin1 (The author of the code
seems to have thought it took an encoding argument but it looks like
that was silently ignored.)
This was reinitialized every time we forked before so we weren't sharing
the same Locks. It also was not accounting for modules which were
directly invoked by an action plugin instead of going through the
strategy plguins.
* add tests for centos6, rhel6 and rhel7
* gen_distribution_version_testcase with python2.6
* remove unused imports
* fix redhat/vmware/... parsing
* add centos7 test case
