Rebooting systems is a task that is commonly automated using Ansible. Since Ansible 2.1, the win_reboot
plugin made it easy to reboot Windows systems, but rebooting Linux and Unix was not as straight forward. With Ansible 2.7, the reboot
plugin makes rebooting Linux and Unix hosts very simple.
In this webinar you will learn how the reboot
and win_reboot
plugins work as well as some advanced techniques to reboot both Windows and Linux/Unix systems in a single task.
