win_copy does not work as the file size is around 300MB. I need to deploy the package on to number of windows clients and install it. Is win_package released module, i couldnt find it.
Another way i tried was to use win_get_url to download the package, but it looks like each client calls ftp to download causing overhead. Any ideas, please help, Thanks On Thursday, June 18, 2015 at 5:51:59 AM UTC-4, Trond Hindenes wrote: > > win_copy is a bad idea. WinRM is simply not built for transferring binary > files.
