Well , I tried again and found some abnormal behaviour.
Observed once i use -y option as below:
---
- hosts: localhost
tasks:
- name: Install specific version of a package in Ansible.
command: yum -y downgrade <rpmname>
~
TASK is stuck and no logs as below:
TASK [Install specific version of a package in Ansible.]
************************************************************************************************************************************
task path: /var/opt/OC/iso/downgrade_playbook.yml:4
And i abormally terminates this after some time. But surprisingly i found
both version of rpm install once i do :
rpm -qa | grep <rpm name>
rpmname.v1
rpmname.v2
Its strange and its not the behaviour of yum downgrade as compared to once
someone run manually this command.
