v19.10.0
========

Minor Changes
-------------

- Added REST support to existing modules.
    By default, the module will use REST if the target system supports it, and the options are supported.  Otherwise, it will switch back to ZAPI.
    This behavior can be controlled with the ``use_rest`` option.
    Always - to force REST.  The module fails and reports an error if REST cannot be used.
    Never - to force ZAPI.  This could be useful if you find some incompatibility with REST, or want to confirm the behavior is identical between REST and ZAPI.
    Auto - the default, as described above.
- na_ontap_cluster_config - role updated to support a cleaner playbook
- na_ontap_command - ``vserver`` - to allow command to run as either cluster admin or vserver admin.  To run as vserver admin you must use the vserver option.
