- 2.0.0:
- changes:
- breaking_changes:
- - The collection now requires at least ansible-core 2.11.0. Ansible 3 and before,
- and ansible-base versions are no longer supported.
- - vmware_cluster_drs - The default for ``enable`` has been changed from ``false``
- to ``true``.
- - vmware_cluster_drs - The parameter alias ``enable_drs`` has been removed,
- use ``enable`` instead.
- - vmware_cluster_ha - The default for ``enable`` has been changed from ``false``
- to ``true``.
- - vmware_cluster_ha - The parameter alias ``enable_ha`` has been removed, use

- included in ansible-core 2.12 if available. This avoids breakage when ``distutils``
- is removed from the standard library of Python 3.12. Note that ansible-core
- 2.11, ansible-base 2.10 and Ansible 2.9 are right now not compatible with
- Python 3.12, hence this fix does not target these ansible-core/-base/2.9 versions.

- backing and guest OS MTU change)
