module: ping
version_added: historical
short_description: Try to connect to host, verify a usable python and return C(pong) on success
description:
- A trivial test module, this module always returns C(pong) on successful
contact. It does not make sense in playbooks, but it is useful from
C(/usr/bin/ansible) to verify the ability to login and that a usable Python is configured.
- This is NOT ICMP ping, this is just a trivial test module that requires Python on the remote-node.
- For Windows targets, use the M(ansible.windows.win_ping) module instead.
- For Network targets, use the M(ansible.netcommon.net_ping) module instead.
options:
data:
description:
- Data to return for the C(ping) return value.
- If this parameter is set to C(crash), the module will cause an exception.
type: str
default: pong
seealso:
- module: ansible.netcommon.net_ping
- module: ansible.windows.win_ping
author:
- Ansible Core Team
- Michael DeHaan
notes:
- Supports C(check_mode).
