Hi,
i need to write a script that will gather the ios image present in cisco
router/switch and delete it.
Below is the output of command executed on a router for reference and iam
including this command in script. I used regex to first extract only
'isr4300-universalk9.03.19.04b.S.155-3.S4b-ext.SPA.bin' from the first line
of output (by telling it to extract all characters after bootflash/) and
then save it a custom variable and delete it. However the problem is, when
i give 'delete /force bootflash:{{ ios_image1 }}' an extra [' .... '] gets
added which is not supposed to be there. Why does it get added and how do i
get rid of it?
ROUTER#sh flash: | i SPA.bin

/bootflash/isr4300-universalk9.03.19.04b.S.155-3.S4b-ext.SPA.bin

I ran below script for verification purpose:
- debug:
msg:
- "{{ ios_image1 }}"
k: [ROUTERTEST] => {
"ansible_facts": {
"ios_image1": [
"isr4300-universalk9.03.19.04b.S.155-3.S4b-ext.SPA.bin"
]
},
"changed": false
}
Thanks,
Vikram
