Hi David,
Changing the yml file as below at least loads the file. As per docs the key
under responses is python regex so I think it should work.
- name: Access member 0
expect:
command: 'request session member 0'
responses:
^---\sJUNOS.+\n(warning.+\n){5}\{((backup)|(linecard)):((1)|(2))\}:
start shell user root
However, I am trying to understand the need to use 'expect' module to run
junos operational command.
Can't it be run using 'junos_command' module? Does running this command
prompts for an interactive input?
Regards,
Ganesh
