capabilities – Manage Linux capabilities¶
Parameters¶
Notes¶
Note
- The capabilities system will automatically transform operators and flags into the effective set, so for example,
cap_foo=ep
will probably becomecap_foo+ep
. - This module does not attempt to determine the final operator and flags to compare, so you will want to ensure that your capabilities argument matches the final capabilities.
Examples¶
- name: Set cap_sys_chroot+ep on /foo
capabilities:
path: /foo
capability: cap_sys_chroot+ep
state: present
- name: Remove cap_net_bind_service from /bar
capabilities:
path: /bar
capability: cap_net_bind_service
state: absent
Status¶
- This module is not guaranteed to have a backwards compatible interface. [preview]
- This module is maintained by the Ansible Community. [community]
