Hi All,  
I am using win\_reboot model to reboot the windows machines but module is not working properly when windows takes more than 10 mins to reboot is there any alternative for this?

Thanks

You can use the reboot\_timeout: 600 to wait for 10 min. It means that for 10min, ansible will wait until the next task.

I tried this but ansible won’t detect server status only it will give timeout error even though server comes online if I specify the extra parameters that you provided if I keep everything default it works fine

Try adding ignore\_errors: true with the win\_reboot task and see if it is still failing?
