NAME
----
ansible - run a command somewhere else
SYNOPSIS
--------
ansible [-H hosts_path] [-L library_path] [-f forks] [-n module_name]
[-a [args1 [args2 ...]]] [-p host_pattern] [-u remote_user]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
*Ansible* is an extra-simple Python API for doing \'remote things' over
SSH.
OPTIONS
-------
*-P*, *--askpass*::
Ask the user to input the ssh password for connecting.
*-H*, *--host-list*::
Path to hosts list.
*-L*, *--library*::
Path to module library.
*-f*, *--forks*::
Level of parallelism. Specify as an integer.
*-n*, *--name*::
Module name to execute.
*-a*, *--args*::
Arguments to module.
*-p*, *--pattern*::
Hostname pattern. Accepts shell-like globs.
*-r*, *--run-playbook*::

*-u*, *--remote-user*::
Remote user to connect as. Uses __root__ by default.
INVENTORY
---------
Ansible stores the hosts it can potentially operate on in an inventory
file. The syntax is simple: one host per line. Organize your hosts
into multiple groups by separating them into multiple inventory files.
FILES
-----
/etc/ansible/hosts -- Default hosts file
