Re: [ansible-project] Module vmware_guest option powerdon/powerdoff not work OK

Makes sense the behavior, your playbook is attempting to power on the vm (state: poweredon) if the vm is already powered on then changed should be false.

Subject: [ansible-project] Module vmware_guest  option powerdon/powerdoff not work OK

I do a playbook to start a virtual machine.

    - name: Start vmware MV

      vmware_guest:

       hostname: xxxx

       username: xxxx

       password: xxx

       validate_certs: no

       name: {{server}}

       state: poweredon

      delegate_to: localhost

      register: vmware_start

ok: [xxxx] => {

    "vmware_start": {

        "changed": false, 

        "failed": false

    }

}

PLAY RECAP ******************************************************************************************

ssh.sva.itbatera.ejgv.eus  : ok=3    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=0 

I execute the playbook and it doesn´t appear errors:

Even though the VM is powered on, it says '"Changed": false" and never actually powers off the VM.

Sorry I put another version of the playbook.

It doesnt work vmware vguest module to start or stop a virtual machine.

 - name: Start vmware MV

      vmware_guest:

       hostname: xxxx

       username: xxxx

       password: xxx

       validate_certs: no

       name: {{server}}

       state: poweredoff

      delegate_to: localhost

      register: vmware_start

The problem is the user that I use.

I change the user with more privileges and go OK.

ok: [ssh.sva.itbatera.ejgv.eus] => {

    "vmware_start": {

        "changed": true, 

        "failed": false

    }
