I tried to use the rax\_dns\_record module with the “overwrite” parameter and it tells me that: “unsupported parameter for module: overwrite”

If you take a look at the history of that module you can see that the feature has been added almost a year ago and is also in the documentation.

[https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/commits/2f46c35f471b18f369c357016d0e430a65f8429b/cloud/rackspace/rax\_dns\_record.py](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/commits/2f46c35f471b18f369c357016d0e430a65f8429b/cloud/rackspace/rax_dns_record.py)

[http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/rax\_dns\_record\_module.html](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/rax_dns_record_module.html)

But when I checked the source of my locally installed ansible it was missing from it. I tried pip install ansible --upgrade but It tells me that I have the latest version.

Am I doing something wrong or is the only solution to switch to the git version of ansible and work with that ?

The overwrite option was just recently added, and will not be included until the 2.1 release of ansible. The documentation was not updated correctly. I have just merged a docs fix that will now indicate that `overwrite` was added in `2.1`.
