Hi everyone,

I recently made a playbook which deploys a VM (Windows 2012 R2) from a template in my vCenter, which runs without problems. I wanted to set the IP (and maybe join the windows domain, if possible) of this newly set up VM, but didn’t find a parameter in the vsphere\_guest module, which fits my needs.  
Is there a way to change an IP of a Windows VM in vSphere using Ansible?

Thanks,  
Tim
