How can I force setup to run on a play even if the Ansible config file is set to gathering strategy of smart.
When I include
for a play, it is just ignored while the facts file for a host is available in ~/.ansible/facts - this is in Ansible version 2.0.2.0
What am I doing wrong or is that even by design?

Hi,
How can I force setup to run on a play even if the Ansible config file is set to gathering strategy of smart.
Ansible 2.1:
* New meta action, `meta: clear_facts` which will remove existing facts for the current host from current memory and facts cache.
Cheers,
Paul
