When destination sysctl file is missing, it is created. But, for idempotency purposes, the creation process now takes place just before it is used, in the main code path so an empty file is not left over if the code module.fail_jsons before the file is really used.
Ansible
Ansible is a radically simple configuration-management, deployment, task-execution, and multinode orchestration framework.
Read the documentation and more at http://ansible.cc
Many users run straight from the development branch (it's generally fine to do so), but you might also wish to consume a release. You can find instructions on http://ansible.cc/docs/gettingstarted.html for a variety of platforms. If you want a tarball of the last release, go to http://ansible.cc/releases/ and you can also install with pip (though that will bring in some optional binary dependencies you normally do not need).
Design Principles
- Dead simple setup
- Super fast & parallel by default
- No server or client daemons; use existing SSHd
- No additional software required on client boxes
- Modules can be written in ANY language
- Awesome API for creating very powerful distributed scripts
- Be usable as non-root
- The easiest config management system to use, ever.
