Hi All,

I have a question regarding the ansible.cfg file entry for remote_tmp

Is there any config to define the windows remote_tmp directory in ansible.cfg file?

thanks
Robin

no, currently only remote_tmp exists, which is ignored by the winrm
module afaik.

But this does seem like a feature we should push to the hosts vs just
ansible.cfg. (ansible_tmp_dir?)

Thanks Brian. Let me check that option.

Also is there any functionality in ansible to auto archive/rotate log_path file in ansible.cfg

no, but ansible logs to syslog also or you can use a callback to do
the logging you want.

other than that their are plenty of programs that do log rotation.
