Hi Nick,
Here is an example of a working config, note the use of (hosts: all) in
the playbook since the inventory will be managed by Tower:
---
- hosts: all
tasks:
- name: Ping windows host
ansible.windows.win_ping:
register: ping_result
- name: show ping result
ansible.builtin.debug:
var: ping_result
Then in Tower create an inventory and add you connection variables, I
suggest you try basic first the upgrade once you can establish a connection:
Add your host to the inventory and select it when creating the job template.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
