[ansible-project] Unarchive

I'm using the unarchive module for deployment. I'd like to take advantage of the diff feature to avoid uploading the tarball, if nothing has changed; but I'm wary of leaving remnants of the previous version (a lesson I've learned the hard way), so I currently delete it before unarchiving the new

[ansible-project] Rename rax server

Hi, Is there any way to rename a rax server, using an ansible module? It doesn't seem to be possible using the rax_meta module, and I couldn't see anything else appropriate. I can do it in the control panel easily enough, so I assume it can be done through the API. Thanks, Graham -- You rec

[ansible-project] Paramiko

Hi, I recently fetched the latest version of devel (submodules and all), and started getting the "paramiko not installed" error. Has something changed recently? If I specify "-c ssh" it works fine, but I thought that was the default now? I'm running the scripts from a Mac, with a fairly old ve

[ansible-project] Running a playbook on a new rackspace instance

Hi, This is possibly more of a rackspace question than an ansible one, but hey-ho. When we create a new instance using the rax module, we then have a post-creation playbook containing steps that need to be run on all servers. The creation playbook waits for the instances to have finished buildi

[ansible-project] Immutable servers using rax module

Hi, We were considering taking an "immutable server" approach to deployments (we may not be able to due to 3rd party restrictions whitelisting IPs), is that something that would be possible using the rax module? So, a deployment would consist of spinning up and provisioning x new servers, addi
