Spent the Sunday morning updating my personal #ansible playbooks. Man, these guys keep on deprecating quite a lot :)

Now, all my #OpenBSD servers get their configuration without the usage of deprecated variables.

@xhr Glad to hear I'm not the only one. I started using Ansible to simplify things, but after having a couple of years of relatively simple times, a lot of recipes stopped working with the next LTS update of Ubuntu.

(/me hears the 'verse echoing with "I think I see your problem".)

Sigh... Sunday should be Systemadminday...

@TallSimon The best ansible advice was given to me by a fellow coworker. Fix your playbooks, learn to trust them and run them always and often. This made things easier for me.

I didn't update parts of the playbooks for 2y, because the servers simply need no care. Benefit of running OpenBSD :) But yes, the Universe also echoed that back to me this morning ;)
