Hello - I'm seeking some assistance in unpackaging a tarball using Ansible.
I'm using the unarchive module to unpackage a tarball to a remote server.
The tarball is stored localled on the Ansible server, and I want it
extracted on the target server.
*Code Snippet:*
- name: Prepare variables for WM dal_SDN180.tar changes
set_fact:
filename="dal_SDN180.tar"
ma_app="WM"
- name: Deploy file to target
# Unzip using Ansible unarchive module
tags: deploy
unarchive:
src: "{{ filename }}"
dest: "{{ WMS_HOME }}/swtools/"
register: deployed_copy_output
*-vvv output:*
> ok: [ptl01a0fap006] => {"changed": false, "dest":
> "/apps/scope/manh/WM/swtools/", "gid": 2345, "group": "g_wmspt", "handler":

When run, the play considers the task "ok" even though I know the tar file
has different contents than the target. The tar file contains the same
files, but the contents of those file is different. I would expect Ansible
to nptice this and then extract the tarball. I'm able to see this behavior
with zip files, but not tar files. I did notice that if I manually delete
one of the files on the target server, Ansible then extracts the entire
tarball. Manually reverting a file and rerunning Ansible still does not
extract the tarball.
Any thoughts on what I am missing here? I reviewed this thread
<https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/issues/2936> and tried
setting pipelining to False, but it still had the same behavior.
Thanks
