module: nxos_command
extends_documentation_fragment:
- cisco.nxos.nxos
author: Peter Sprygada (@privateip)
notes:
- Limited Support for Cisco MDS
short_description: Run arbitrary command on Cisco NXOS devices
description:
- Sends an arbitrary command to an NXOS node and returns the results read from the
device. This module includes an argument that will cause the module to wait for
a specific condition before returning or timing out if the condition is not met.
version_added: 1.0.0
options:
commands:
description:
- The commands to send to the remote NXOS device. The resulting output from the
command is returned. If the I(wait_for) argument is provided, the module is
not returned until the condition is satisfied or the number of retires as expired.
- The I(commands) argument also accepts an alternative form that allows for complex
values that specify the command to run and the output format to return. This
can be done on a command by command basis. The complex argument supports the
keywords C(command) and C(output) where C(command) is the command to run and
C(output) is one of 'text' or 'json'.
- If a command sent to the device requires answering a prompt, it is possible to pass
a dict containing command, answer and prompt. Common answers are 'y' or "\\r"
(carriage return, must be double quotes). See examples.
required: true
type: list
elements: raw
wait_for:
description:
- Specifies what to evaluate from the output of the command and what conditionals
to apply. This argument will cause the task to wait for a particular conditional
to be true before moving forward. If the conditional is not true by the configured
retries, the task fails. See examples.
aliases:
- waitfor
type: list
elements: str
match:
description:
- The I(match) argument is used in conjunction with the I(wait_for) argument to
specify the match policy. Valid values are C(all) or C(any). If the value
is set to C(all) then all conditionals in the I(wait_for) must be satisfied. If
the value is set to C(any) then only one of the values must be satisfied.
default: all
choices: ['any', 'all']
type: str
retries:
description:
- Specifies the number of retries a command should by tried before it is considered
failed. The command is run on the target device every retry and evaluated against
the I(wait_for) conditionals.
- The commands are run once when I(retries) is set to C(0).
default: 9
type: int
interval:
description:
- Configures the interval in seconds to wait between retries of the command. If
the command does not pass the specified conditional, the interval indicates
how to long to wait before trying the command again.
default: 1
type: int
