[ansible-project] In an Ansible task, what is the proper way to run a script in the background?

Say I want to run a script in the background after my Ansible run finishes. Which of these two options is the correct way? *Option 1: Run a nohup on the Ansible task itself* - name:Run a script in the background command: nohup myscript.sh 2>&1 & where myscript.sh does something (anything) but

Or option three: use async:. http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbooks_async.html If the script is something you want to run and exit after performing its tall, I think async is the most idiomatic. If the script is more like a daemon, having nohup in the script feels right to me but I can

Windows does not use the standard user/group/all permissions that are in use with most unix servers so the mode option most likely will never be supported. Windows uses ACLs https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa374872%28v=vs.85%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396 to set
