Ansible 2.8: Let’s –become

Last week, Red Hat released Ansible 2.8. One of the major changes is the new become facility, which will deprecate many former sudo functions.
The deprecated CLI arguments for –sudo, –sudo-user, –ask-sudo-pass, -su, –su-user, and –ask-su-pass have been removed, in favor of the more generic –become, –become-user, –become-method, and –ask-become-pass. Check your ansible.cfg and start using the new syntax.Other (minor) changes:

Other changes I might check out:

• Zabbix inventory support is added
• Connect Windows over SSH to Powershell
