module: win_reboot
short_description: Reboot a windows machine
description:
- Unconditionally reboot a Windows machine, wait for it to go down, come back up, and respond to commands.
- For non-Windows targets, use the M(ansible.builtin.reboot) module instead.
options:
pre_reboot_delay:
description:
- Seconds to wait before reboot. Passed as a parameter to the reboot command.
- The minimum version is C(2) seconds and cannot be set lower.
type: float
default: 2
aliases: [ pre_reboot_delay_sec ]
post_reboot_delay:
description:
- Seconds to wait after the reboot command was successful before attempting to validate the system rebooted successfully.
- This is useful if you want wait for something to settle despite your connection already working.
type: float
default: 0
aliases: [ post_reboot_delay_sec ]
reboot_timeout:
description:
- Maximum seconds to wait for machine to re-appear on the network and respond to a test command.
- This timeout is evaluated separately for both reboot verification and test command success so maximum clock time is actually twice this value.
type: float
default: 600
aliases: [ reboot_timeout_sec ]
connect_timeout:
description:
- Maximum seconds to wait for a single successful TCP connection to the WinRM endpoint before trying again.
type: float
default: 5
aliases: [ connect_timeout_sec ]
test_command:
description:
- Command to expect success for to determine the machine is ready for management.
- By default this test command is a custom one to detect when the Windows Logon screen is up and ready to accept
credentials. Using a custom command will replace this behaviour and just run the command specified.
type: str
msg:
description:
- Message to display to users.
type: str
default: Reboot initiated by Ansible
boot_time_command:
description:
- Command to run that returns a unique string indicating the last time the system was booted.
- Setting this to a command that has different output each time it is run will cause the task to fail.
type: str
default: '(Get-CimInstance -ClassName Win32_OperatingSystem -Property LastBootUpTime).LastBootUpTime.ToFileTime()'
notes:
- If a shutdown was already scheduled on the system, M(ansible.windows.win_reboot) will abort the scheduled shutdown and enforce its own shutdown.
- Beware that when M(ansible.windows.win_reboot) returns, the Windows system may not have settled yet and some base services could be in limbo.
This can result in unexpected behavior. Check the examples for ways to mitigate this. This has been slightly mitigated
in the C(1.6.0) release of C(ansible.windows) but it is not guranteed to always wait until the logon prompt is shown.
- The connection user must have the C(SeRemoteShutdownPrivilege) privilege enabled, see
U(https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/security-policy-settings/force-shutdown-from-a-remote-system)
for more information.
- This module is equivalent to using the /f forced option for reboot on a windows host
