dellos10_command - Run commands on remote devices running Dell OS10
New in version 2.2.
Synopsis
- Sends arbitrary commands to a Dell OS10 node and returns the results read from the device. This module includes an argument that will cause the module to wait for a specific condition before returning or timing out if the condition is not met.
- This module does not support running commands in configuration mode. Please use dellos10_config to configure Dell OS10 devices.

commands | yes | List of commands to send to the remote dellos10 device over the configured provider. The resulting output from the command is returned. If the wait_for argument is provided, the module is not returned until the condition is satisfied or the number of retries has expired. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
interval | no | 1 | Configures the interval in seconds to wait between retries of the command. If the command does not pass the specified conditions, the interval indicates how long to wait before trying the command again. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
