Hi,
I was hoping to get more details from you regarding this issue. I
appreciate what you're trying to do at Ansible's level, but what's going to
do the data transfer? If it's rsync, then I would like to propose a new
approach to this, but if it's not, I need to know before I can write some
example code for you.
Cheers,
Mike.
