Hi,

I had a ini file which will install sql server on windows. Can i know how can I run that ini file inside the playbook to apply to windows host.

1. I just want to know how does the playbook looks like

2.) My ini file is parameterized, so how can I pass the values.

This sounds like a general Ansible usage question rather than anything related to AWX.

I’d recommend using the Ansible project mailing list or IRC channel for this kind of question. See [http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community/communication.html#communication](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community/communication.html#communication) for different ways to request help using Ansible.
