Cheers Vlad, that does help! I couldn't work out from the github thread if the fix had been merged back into the code or not? the dev mentions at the end about making sure the library is there. I have installed the new library in centos8 and it makes no difference How can i easily tell if this has actually made it back into master/an ansible release? it is not clear to me
NM seems to be the recommended way and where things are going so i would like to get this to work but obviously, i cant use the nmcli module to do so. NM will still read the interface scripts and i have also tested /etc/networkmanager/conf.d configuration. I didn't really want to template the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg files... all i really want to do at this stage is ensure DNS configuration is consistent across all servers and can be updated easily. this would require: 1. Managing the directives DNS# in the interface scripts. Adding/updating entries could be prone to error 2. Adding this config to /etc/networkmanager/conf.d/dns.conf ( this could be a template ) On Friday, 7 February 2020 17:23:09 UTC+8, Vladimir Botka wrote: > > On Thu, 6 Feb 2020 19:03:07 -0800 (PST) > matzuba <[email protected] <javascript:>> wrote: > > > I am trying to use the nmcli module to set DNS server and other network > > related configuration rather than using templates > > *Is it still broken? should i give up on this module?* > > the module dependencies mention an old library which i believe is no > longer > > avail on centos8 - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/64646 > > Yes.
