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"
Uses a generic BSD Network class, which uses ifconfig and
parses crap out of it. Modifies the Network __new__
implementation to search further down the subclass
tree
If it is a directory, change the destination path by appending the
basename of the source file, like is done if the destination ends with a
/, and try to get the MD5 of the new path.
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
