Hey,

I have one repertory **/home/ansible/my\_repertory** with this content :

drwxr-xr-x 3 ansible ansible 4096 Sep 11 10:25 db-component\_2019-09-11\_10h25\_00  
drwxr-xr-x 3 ansible ansible 4096 Sep 11 10:46 db-component\_2019-09-11\_10h46\_34  
drwxr-xr-x 3 ansible ansible 4096 Sep 11 10:47 db-component\_2019-09-11\_10h47\_17

I need an ansible spot that can recover the oldest folder in this repertory.

Someone have idea please community ansible ! 🙂

Regards,

Karther
