Hi, example from previous reply will do all stages for you:
- name: Ensure packages are installed and the latest available version yum: name="{{ item }}" state=latest with_items: - some_package - some_other_package - a_third_package This will check package presence, then install it if it is not installed and update if it is. This is the key: "state=latest" On Tuesday, December 15, 2015 at 11:14:17 AM UTC-5, 张斌 wrote: > > > Thanks Calum. I already went through the docs, and googled.
