Notes
-----
.. note::
- Tested against the following platforms and images - N9k 7.0(3)I4(6), 7.0(3)I5(3), 7.0(3)I6(1), 7.0(3)I7(1), 7.0(3)F2(2), 7.0(3)F3(2) - N3k 6.0(2)A8(6), 6.0(2)A8(8), 7.0(3)I6(1), 7.0(3)I7(1) - N7k 7.3(0)D1(1), 8.0(1), 8.1(1), 8.2(1)
- Tested against Cisco MDS NX-OS 9.2(1)
- This module requires both the ANSIBLE_PERSISTENT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT and ANSIBLE_PERSISTENT_COMMAND_TIMEOUT timers to be set to 600 seconds or higher. The module will exit if the timers are not set properly.
- When using connection local, ANSIBLE_PERSISTENT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT and ANSIBLE_PERSISTENT_COMMAND_TIMEOUT can only be set using ENV variables or the ansible.cfg file.
- Do not include full file paths, just the name of the file(s) stored on the top level flash directory.
- This module attempts to install the software immediately, which may trigger a reboot.
- In check mode, the module will indicate if an upgrade is needed and whether or not the upgrade is disruptive or non-disruptive(ISSU).
- For information on using CLI and NX-API see the :ref:`NXOS Platform Options guide <nxos_platform_options>`
- For more information on using Ansible to manage network devices see the :ref:`Ansible Network Guide <network_guide>`
- For more information on using Ansible to manage Cisco devices see the `Cisco integration page <https://www.ansible.com/integrations/networks/cisco>`_.
