Hi Ryad, Ansible indeed commuicates wth Windows via WinRM as standard Windows protocol for remote management. Latest version of Ansible and latest version of Windows also support communication via SSH.
If you need to execute some SQL script on MS SQL, you have 2 directions: 1. (simler for Windows guy). Use WinRM connection from Ansible to Windows Server where MS SQL is installed. Copy SQL script from Ansible host to Windows with win_copy module ( https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/win_copy_module.html). Run sqlcmd with win_command module ( https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/win_command_module.html) or win_shell ( https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/win_shell_module.html) with Invoke-Sqlcmd cmdlet passing sql script as parameter. Since you are using WinRM you will hit double hop issue (i.e. your sql script will be running in context of local user and authentication will fail on connection to MS SQL since it will not recognize the user running the script - see see https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/windows_winrm.html#limitations). Workarounds are: - use become to become another user with permission to execute this script. ( https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/become.html#become-and-windows ) - use credssp - use Kerberos delegation There methods will help in case you are using Windows only authentiation on SQL side. If you want to use sql login, you supply alternate credentials in sqlcmd or invoke-sqlcmd in case you are using sql logins. This would be rather quick way to achieve what you need though win_shell and win_command are anti-patterns for Ansible's declarative approach. 2. (simpler for Python guy) Use delegation and run query from Ansible host. You will have to create some python code (ideally in form of Ansible module) what will connect to SQL from Ansible controller and execute the script. In this case you will connect from Ansible host to MS SQL via 1433/tcp. AFAIK, there is no ready to use module to run SQL scripts on MS SQL from Ansible, but there is module for database creation/deletion, you may want to take a look on it (doc - https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/mssql_db_module.html#mssql-db-module, repo - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/modules/database/mssql/mssql_db.py ).
