Hi
AFAIK Cron module checks only those crons which starts with #Ansible. From
docs:
- 'The module includes one line with the description of the crontab entry
C("#Ansible: <name>")
corresponding to the "name" passed to the module, which is used by future
ansible/module calls
to find/check the state.'
I agree that this is not the best way to manage crons. Perhaps this module
should be re-written and should use something like
python-crontab https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-crontab
